The Bretzfelder Family Educational Series continues this Wednesday, August 15 at Bretzfelder Park with a program on the Owls of New Hampshire, as the Forest Society welcomes a naturalist and three live owls from Squam Lakes Natural Science Center.
Who calls in the night? Who
glides through the dark on shadowy wings in silent flight? The program will answer
these questions and will include a discussion of the habitat needs for the
three different owl species exhibited. The Forest Society protects the places
where these beautiful nocturnal birds of prey live throughout the state of New
Hampshire.
This hands-on, interactive
program is designed to engage and educate people of all ages.

The
summer Bretzfelder Series concludes August
22 with a demonstration of wild
lands firefighting. District Forest Ranger Steve Sherman will lead the
demonstration, with wardens from the New Hampshire Division of Forests and
Lands and members of the Bethlehem Fire Department assisting. The firefighters
will demonstrate how they use special tools, equipment and tactics to fight
wildfires.
Weather
permitting, the firefighters will conduct a live demonstration with a fire at
the park. More information about the demonstration is on our calendar.
