SUMMARY:A Garden in the Woods of the Past
DESCRIPTION:Eric Johnson\, University of Massachusetts Archeological Services\nWednesday\, April 26\, 7:00 pm\nFree\nRegistration appreciated\n \nWhat was life like here in western Massachusetts three to four thousand years ago? A combination of archaeological excavations and analysis of ancient sediments from Kampoosa Bog in Stockbridge yielded exciting new evidence that the ancient hunter-gatherers of this region practiced wildlife management. By controlled burning of the forest understory\, they increased the abundance of important food animals and plants. They effectively created a garden in the woods. In this illustrated lecture\, Eric will describe the archaeological and environmental studies under taken at Kampoosa and discuss the evidence they produced.

SUMMARY:Skydancer!
DESCRIPTION:with Dan Ziomek\, local birder and host of Birdsongs on WRSI\, the River\nFriday\, April 7\, 6-9 pm\nMember price $15/Non-Member price $18\nRegister here\nRecommended for adults and young people 4th grade and up \nEach spring a wonderful species of “shore” bird returns from their wintering grounds to nest near the wetlands and forests of the Valley. Most of the they are incredibly secretive\, well-camouflaged and difficult to see. But during the mating season the males perform a beautiful sky dance at sunset; to attract a mate. Dan will explain the life cycle of the American Woodcock and then take us out to see the mating dance! Bring binoculars and dress warm for the evening chill! We may be carpooling to the dancing ground depending on where the action is this year!
