SUMMARY:Senior Garden Tour and Plant Potting Activity – Free Event for Area Seniors with Auburn Parks and Rec

SUMMARY:Identifying Trees and Shrubs and Their Ecological Role as Habitat for Birds
DESCRIPTION:This program will be from 8:30-11:30 am at Burley Farm in Epping. The program will be limited to 15 participants. This event will be held entirely outdoors and will be held as long as it is not raining. Participants should bring their binoculars and clothing appropriate for the weather conditions at the time of the event. \nThis program\, by Matt Tarr of UNH Cooperative Extension\, will teach you how to identify the most common native and non-native shrubs that comprise many bird habitats in NH. We will identify each shrub species\, discuss how each species functions as bird habitat\, and which shrubs you want to encourage on your land to benefit birds. We will also be looking and listening for birds (of course!) and sharing our tips for how to identify the birds we encounter during the trip. \nBio: Matt Tarr is an Extension Professor and State Wildlife Habitat Specialist for the University of NH Cooperative Extension. Much of Matt’s research and work is focused on determining how non-native shrubs function as habitat for songbirds and on how birds respond to land-use and habitat management practices at different landscape scales. Matt is an avid birder who enjoys photographing and recording birds.

SUMMARY:Creative Nature Ventures Exhibit
DESCRIPTION:This exhibit highlights the nature-inspired work of a group of local artists\, led by Bill Turner\, that meets once a week at Creative Ventures\, located in Milford\, NH. During these sessions\, typically 8-10 artists bring their work (either an in-progress or a completed work). Each piece is displayed before the group and generates a friendly discussion centered on suggestions that help lead to a more exciting work of art. The main focus of the work is realism\, however\, abstract artists also benefit from the feedback process. Recently\, there has been a nature focus within the group\, including many paintings of bird species\, in particular. Collaborating with NH Audubon to display these pieces is a natural connection. We look forward to generating interest and excitement for our works with other art-\, bird-\, and nature- enthusiasts. \n \nThe exhibit will be on display in the Massabesic Center’s large function room during regular operating hours. Viewing access may be restricted during private event rentals and education programs. Calling ahead to confirm is recommended.

SUMMARY:Gifts of the Garden: Engaging with the Experts
DESCRIPTION:Visit the Massabesic Center to meet the team who are outstanding in their fields and know all the dirt. No need to herb your enthusiasm! Bring your pressing questions about plants\, find your inner peas\, discover inspiration for laying down roots at home\, or just dig the blooms! \nOur volunteer team of UNH Extension Master Gardeners like to have fun and teach others about what it takes to create and maintain the luscious\, wildlife-friendly gardens on the grounds. These informal meet and greet events are the perfect way to learn about getting involved in volunteer gardening opportunities with NH Audubon\, and about ways you can duplicate our gardens in your own backyard\, whether you have an acre or a patio pot. \nThe beautiful gardens on site include pollinator and bird-friendly plants\, a rain garden space\, vegetable gardens\, raised beds\, and more. As an ongoing partnership between New Hampshire Audubon and University of New Hampshire Extension’s Master Gardener Program\, Massabesic’s Demonstration Gardens provide a place for sharing best practices in eco-friendly home and community gardening\, which enhance human health and well-being and wildlife habitat. \nDress for walking in short grass on flat but uneven terrain. Sunscreen and personal insect repellant are recommended. Building hours (and bathroom access) are 11am to 5pm\, but come early before the heat of the day chases the gardeners away. Visit the gift shop and meet our animal ambassadors after you spend your morning exploring the gardens. Consider packing a lunch to enjoy at one of the picnic tables surrounding the gardens. Children are welcomed and encouraged! \nGardeners will not be on site during inclement weather\, but visitors are still welcomed. \nThis event is free to attend. RSVP is recommended to let us know how many visitors to expect \nSupport our programs and join or renew your membership today! Not sure of your membership status? Email our member services department or call (603) 224-9909 x310. \nFor mobility\, sensory\, behavioral\, or other accessibility accommodations\, please contact Massabesic Center Director\, Kimmie Whiteman.

SUMMARY:NH Bat Counts Training
DESCRIPTION:Got bats? Help us count them! Attics\, barns\, and church steeples often serve as summer homes for female bats and their young. In the face of white-nose syndrome\, which is causing significant declines in bat populations throughout the Northeast\, monitoring these “maternity colonies” is more important than ever. Landowners\, homeowners\, and other volunteers can help keep track of New Hampshire’s bats by conducting “emergence counts” at bat roosts throughout the state. \nJoin wildlife biologists Sandi Houghton of NH Fish & Game and Haley Andreozzi of UNH Cooperative Extension for a presentation and demonstration at the NH Audubon Massabesic Center to learn more about the bat species found in New Hampshire\, the threats leading to population declines\, and how you can help. The training will start with an indoor presentation on bats in New Hampshire. Then\, we’ll head outdoors to the onsite barn for a bat counting demonstration at dusk. \nAttendees will be trained to participate in the NH Bat Counts project\, in which volunteers help to monitor summer bat colonies in New Hampshire. All are welcome\, but landowners and homeowners with bats on their property are especially encouraged to attend. For those interested in participating in NH Bat Counts but without bats on their own property\, we will have suggestions for sites – like the Massabesic Center – in need of committed volunteers. \nThis training is free\, but space is limited and registration is required. Register here through UNH Extension. \nWhat to Bring: The second half of the training will be held outside at twilight. Bring a clipboard and pencil to collect data. Be prepared for bugs (especially mosquitoes)\, and bring a flashlight or headlamp for visibility when walking back to your car. \nQuestions? Contact Haley Andreozzi at haley.andreozzi@unh.edu or 603-862-5327.

SUMMARY:Creative Nature Ventures Exhibit
DESCRIPTION:This exhibit highlights the nature-inspired work of a group of local artists\, led by Bill Turner\, that meets once a week at Creative Ventures\, located in Milford\, NH. During these sessions\, typically 8-10 artists bring their work (either an in-progress or a completed work). Each piece is displayed before the group and generates a friendly discussion centered on suggestions that help lead to a more exciting work of art. The main focus of the work is realism\, however\, abstract artists also benefit from the feedback process. Recently\, there has been a nature focus within the group\, including many paintings of bird species\, in particular. Collaborating with NH Audubon to display these pieces is a natural connection. We look forward to generating interest and excitement for our works with other art-\, bird-\, and nature- enthusiasts. \n \nThe exhibit will be on display in the Massabesic Center’s large function room during regular operating hours. Viewing access may be restricted during private event rentals and education programs. Calling ahead to confirm is recommended.
