SUMMARY:Identification and Ecology of Bark (Virtual)
DESCRIPTION:(MD) (Natural History Society of Maryland) Many people know how to identify trees by their leaves\, but what about when those leaves have fallen or are out of reach? In this two-part course with Michael Wojtech\, you will learn about a system for noticing the beautiful variety of bark characteristics and for using these traits to identify tree species in any season. We will practice using the identification key in our Michael’s text\, Bark: A Field Guide to Trees of the Northeast. You will also discover the function and ecological role of bark. \nThe is the second session of the two-part course.

SUMMARY:Winter Tree Identification
DESCRIPTION:(DC) (Rhizome) Need a reason to get outdoors this winter? Are you wondering what trees do in the cold? This class will explore the biology and identification of trees in winter. Class is divided into two sections: 10:30am to noon will be held indoors (in-person) to learn about the characteristics that are useful for winter tree ID. We’ll look at samples and photographs during this portion\, then move outdoors to apply the skills to wild and cultivated trees from 12:30 to 2:30. \nThe focus will be on trees that are common in the DC area\, with the hope that participants will later be able to identify some of the same trees around the city and watch them transition into spring.

SUMMARY:The Beauty and Magic of Winter Trees (Virtual)
DESCRIPTION:(DMV) (Capital Nature) Join renowned local naturalist Alonso Abugattas\, the Capital Naturalist\, for a fascinating talk on trees during the winter months. Evergreens like American Hollies and Eastern Cedars provide life-sustaining food and shelter to birds and other wildlife\, and reward us with sightings of refreshing green and red. Deciduous trees reveal stunning winter forms while they gather strength for spring buds. With a keen eye you can recognize amazing Oaks\, Beeches\, and Sycamores by their distinctive bark\, nuts\, and fruits. \nAlonso will draw on his abundant knowledge of the natural world\, and on legends of indigenous peoples to reveal the amazing living world of our local trees in winter.
