Join Provincetown Conservation Trust President William Mullin and Naturalist Dennis Minsky for a walk on the western half of the Old Colony Nature Pathway with exploration of Whistle Path Woods, Fox Run , Dwyer Family Woodlands, and the proposed Josephine Del Deo Memorial Woodland. Dennis will lead us through the brilliant and diverse fauna and flora of these areas. We will explore nature in action as spring returns to Provincetown. View and learn about rare migratory birds, blooming swamp azaleas, and the special Atlantic White Cedar Swamp at Fox Run. Our walk begins at the Old Colony Nature Pathway trail head (entrance on Howland Street) and culminates at the end of the trail on Snail Road.
