Fwd: Watchable Wildlife Biologist to lead March Walk & Talk

February 22, 2011

FOR RELEASE AT WILL
 
Steve Living, Watchable Wildlife Biologist with the Virginia Department of Game and Inland Fisheries, will lead a Walk and Talk at New Quarter Park on Saturday, March 5, from 10 a.m. until noon.
 
He will talk about identifying birds, insects, reptiles, amphibians, and mammals by sight and by the signs they leave behind, such as scat, tracks, nesting places, markings on trees, or nibbled shoots. Bring you binoculars or borrow a pair from the park office, and come curious about nature.
 
New Quarter Park is located at 1000 Lakeshead Drive near the Queen's Lake neighborhood. Plan ahead and take an alternate route due to the Colonial Parkway closure between the Parkway Drive and Queen's Lake exits. From the intersection of Route 143 and Penniman Road west of Williamsburg, turn toward Magruder Elementary School on Penniman Road. Take the first left on Hubbard Lane and travel one mile. Turn right on Lakeshead Drive and travel 2 miles to New Quarter Park. For more information, call York County Parks and Recreation at 757-890-3513 Monday to Thursday or New Quarter Park at 757-890-5840 Friday to Sunday.
