Explore local habitats with Marion Leary and Eduardo Duenas, alongside fellow nature enthusiasts. Discover the beauty of our surroundings and learn about the diverse flora and fauna that inhabit them. As we hike along scenic trails, we will discuss the health benefits of being in nature - using principles from forest therapy we will take time to enjoy the rejuvenating benefits of being outdoors.

Animal shelters across the country report a sudden influx around Independence Day of domestic animals, all disoriented and lost, many wounded from fearful attempts to flee from the perceived danger of fireworks. Similarly, some wild animals such as deer are known to run in blind panic, increasing the number of animal-car collisions.
