Field Guide Book Talk: Habitats in the Kinderhook Area

Join authors of From the Hudson to the Taconics: An Ecological and Cultural Field Guide to the Habitats of Columbia County, New York for an engaging introduction to this richly illustrated and unique new book, which is the culmination of years of original research by the Farmscape Ecology Program and Hudsonia. Authors will share some of their experiences creating From the Hudson to the Taconics, exciting discoveries along the way, and how they hope to build on this work through a new habitat research and conservation initiative. The audience will also be invited to learn how one might use this book (available through the library) to become more familiar with the diverse and beautiful landscape of Columbia County and its surrounds. Authors will focus especially on some of their favorite habitats in the Kinderhook area.

This free talk can be enjoyed as a single event or paired with a Habitat Exploration Walk at the Martin Van Buren Nature Area on Saturday, May 18, in which participants will have a chance to use the book to explore in more detail the many facets of several habitats.
