Learn about the rich hidden life in the high concentration of vernal pools nestled in this special landscape. Vernal pools are seasonal pools of water that provide habitat for frogs, salamanders, fairy shrimp, turtles and more. Join naturalist Sue Bickford for a guided vernal pool exploration of Tatnic Woods Preserve. This is an excellent hike for families with young children – the distances are short and finding little critters is pretty exciting!
