About this Event
It's Valentines Day and, not coincidentally, many animals act on their "spring feelings" around the same time. Docent Naturalists Annette Herz, An Scharlaken, Jan Hintermeister, and Melissa Hero will explore the different adaptations nature deploys for procreation as you hike beneath the redwood canopy. Some strategies will likely be familiar to you while others will be very, very different! With some luck you’ll have the opportunity to observe some of the species, too. Bring a snack to enjoy and be prepared for wintery redwood temperatures. (Note: Please evaluate if this guided activity is appropriate for your child due to the content being about mating and procreation.) Reservations are required and will be accepted on or after January 31 at 12:00 p.m. (Noon) and close February 13 at 2:00 p.m.
