Defiende Nuestra Tierra, White River National Forest, The Aspen InstituteChurch of the City New London sponsored a trip on board the Black Hawk Fish Charter out of Mago Point in Waterford, Connecticut. The purpose of this event is to familiarize church members with the bountiful fisheries of the Long Island and Block Island Sounds. This was an eight hour trip in which every single person was able to harvest different species of bottom fish, such as black sea bass, porgies, mackerel, etc.
This event gave us to opportunity to take young men that otherwise are unable to experience fishing for food and have them bring home sufficient fish to feed their families for several days.

Caminata Nocturna con una Tortuga Marina
Una experiencia única: Una caminata nocturna en la playa para observar el proceso de anidación de una tortuga marina.
22 de julio 2022
Una caminata guiada es un programa único que les permite a nuestros visitantes aprender y observar el proceso de anidación de las tortugas marinas. Con la aprobación de permisos estatales, los observadores de Loggerhead Marinelife Center patrullan la playa de Juno Beach para buscar a las tortugas mientras los visitantes disfrutan de una presentación informativa. El evento será de 9:00 p.m. a 12:00 a.m.
Este año estaremos participando en Latino Conservation Week 2022: Una iniciativa de Hispanic Access Foundation, creada para apoyar la participación de la comunidad Latina en actividades al aire libre y actividades que ayuden a proteger nuestros recursos naturales. Nuestra participación será una presentación en español gratuita. Para esta actividad solamente podemos acomodar a 30 participantes, que tendrán que registrarse en línea. El link para registrarse es:

Usar el código Oceans22
Los niños deberán ser mayores de 10 años para poder asistir y todos los participantes deben poder caminar en la playa. (Contamos con silla de ruedas para playa).
No existe ninguna relación entre la actividad de anidación de una tortuga marina con la fase de la luna, el tiempo o la marea. Todas las noches tenemos la misma probabilidad de ver una tortuga aunque no podemos garantizar que veremos una esa noche.

In honor of Latino Conservation Week. Our Juntos families (see program information below) will be taking a hike at Almaden Quicksilver County Park to learn about the Park's rich mining history and the key role that Latino miners played in the success of California Gold Rush. Families will also learn about the importance of conservation. Our event includes a hike, picnic, Plant-a-Seed activity and a short presentation from a local non-profit called "Our City Forest" who's mission is to cultivate a green and healthy Silicon Valley by engaging community members in the appreciation, protection, growth and maintenance of the urban ecosystem, especially the urban forest.
Overview of Santa Clara County Juntos Initiative
The partnership between healthcare providers and park and environmental organizations is focused on working together and making the outdoors more inclusive and accessible. Through this partnership, which includes the City of San Jose, Veggielution, Santa Clara County Parks, Santa Clara County Public Health teams; and the dedicated providers at Santa Clara Valley Medical Center this initiative seeks to promote the health benefits of the outdoors.
The Juntos Initiative is comprised of the following three components:
1) Quarterly Park Activities (quarterly activities range from nature hikes to gardening)
2) Capitanes del Bosque (youth volunteer program)
3) Promotores (parent leadership program)
Participating Providers and Participants
Santa Clara Valley Medical Center pediatricians prescribe parks to pediatric patients and their families. Santa Clara County Public Health provides program coordination. Some key data points:
Each quarter 6 to 8 activities are coordinated at parks and outdoor venues for children and their families. Pediatricians attend park activities with their patients which has had a huge impact on patient health. Currently, we work closely with a Champion Provider, Dr. Laurie Cammon at the Pediatric Healthy Lifestyle Center, and her team with plans to invite other pediatric providers to write park prescriptions soon.

Latino Conservation Week has also resulted in broader coverage of the Latino role in conservation in both English and Spanish media. It’s led to recognition from local, state and national elected officials of the important role Latinos play as stewards. Latino Conservation Week has emphasized the Latino community’s passion for the outdoors.

Prior to the establishment of the Harris Neck National Wildlife Refuge, a small Gullah/Geechee community occupied the lands. In 1942, 75 African American families were displaced by the federal government via eminent domain. Since 1979, descendants of the families have sought for the return of lands that were once owned by their ancestors and the original Harris Neck community -- 2,400 acres. Over the years, various attempts to find a mutually agreeable path forward have failed.
In 2020, the Harris Neck National Wildlife Refuge (NWR) and the Direct Descendants of Harris Neck Community (DDHNC) signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU), and formalized a commitment to mutually agreeable collaboration between the two parties. The FWS has been working together with DDHNC to redefine their relationship, and in partnership, regenerate cultural connections to NWR lands and reconnect descendants with their ancestral histories.
Our event commemorates the 1942 Harris Neck Community Diaspora and this year will be the 80th anniversary of the Diaspora. The event honors the ancestors whom inhabited the Original Harris Neck Community. We hope this event will educate people about Harris Neck but also inspire people to learn about the history of places significant to them.

Sign up as a group of up to 3-4 people (ages 10 and older) OR join as an individual/smaller group and we’ll make sure to team you up with others joining the fun! DM us or sign up at the Eventbrite link in our bio to register.
We will have multiple trails to enjoy from half a mile to 3 miles. All the terrain is compacted soil with mixed steepness (no more than 945 ft). Each team will be assigned a trail and a guide to hike and trail mark!
Latino Conservation Week is an annual effort by the Hispanic Access Foundation (@hispanicaccess) to help bring the Latinx community into the outdoors through fun, engaging, safe activities that help protect our natural resources. Marking trails is an important conservation practice that allows everyone to enjoy our trails safely, easily, and with confidence.

An event that will be an introduction to the Corn Creek visitor center and trails. We will have a meet and greet inside the visitor center where the participants will get the chance to explore the exhibits and ask any questions relating to the information provided. Participants may ask for any of the information to be translated or interpreted in Spanish so that everyone can enjoy the visitor center. The event will also provide sweet bread and coffee, other drinks will be provided as an alternative to the coffee for kids.
After everyone has gotten the chance to eat and explore the visitor center, there will be a short guided hike that will touch on 3 prominent features on the trails. The short guided hike is a simple introduction to the trails, in hopes that the participants come recreate on their own in the future with family and friends. Once the guided hike is completed, the participants will return to the visitor center where they can ask for any additional information. The event will have a table that provides more information on other public lands in the Las Vegas area so that they have different options. The participants will be free to go after all this but will be welcomed back in hopes that they pass along their experiences with families and friends. The ultimate end goal will be seeing a higher representation of Latinos recreating on public lands but specifically at Corn Creek Visitor Center.

Friends of the Inyo’s Latino Conservation Week Event is a FREE English-Spanish educational bilingual event to be held at Bishop City Park from 4:30 to 6 p.m. on Saturday, July 23. It is called "Shepherds of Today!" (Pastores ¡De Hoy! in Spanish) and will give an overview of the history of shepherding in the Eastern Sierra, which was traditionally done primarily by Basques for a long time, but now is being done mainly by Peruvians. We will have a panel that will include folks who worked as sheepherders until recently but have transitioned into other jobs such as ranch hands and landscapers. We also are looking to have a sheep or two, perhaps a ewe and her lamb in a pen, for children to pet. Panelists will talk about their adventures in nature; how they have seen the landscape change due to diminished water supplies because of water extraction and climate change; how they keep herds from overgrazing and contaminating rivers and streams; how fencing of herds affects the migration patterns of other (wild) animals; etc. There will also be a resource fair to assist attendees from the local Hispanic community with a variety of services. This is a family-friendly event. All are welcome.

Title: Naturaleza y Comunidad: Intro to iNaturalist & Nature ID
Where: Springfield Armory National Historic Site
When: July 17, 2022, 12 - 3 pm
Latino Outdoors Western MA and Latino Outdoors Connecticut are teaming up to celebrate Latino Conservation Week, and we hope that you will join us!
This week we celebrate the Latine community in the outdoors and conservation! We are hosting an introduction to identifying living things you find in nature using iNaturalist, a free app and website that allows you to share information with the global community on what you see. iNaturalist can prepare you to identify the plants, animals, and insects that you come across anytime. When we use iNaturalist to identify a plant, animal or insect - the information helps scientists and conservation professionals all over the world.

Enjoy the (bilingual) “Smokey Bear Story” as you stroll in the William Penn’s Gibraltar Tract. The storybook trail is on natural dirt surface and may be muddy when wet. It is not very suitable for strollers, but children able to walk a mile should have no trouble.

No registration required.
Directions:
One parking lot is at the State Forest gate at 18 Killian Drive, Birdsboro, PA 19508 and will accommodate about 5 vehicles.
From there follow the signs down the steps to the SRT and turn left. Walk about 1/2 mile to the start of the story in the woods on the left. The total loop is about 1 mile long.
The second parking lot is the Angstadt Lane trailhead along Route 724 near the PDOT facility at Angstadt Lane. This lot will accommodate 18 cars.
From the Angstadt Trailhead cross Route 724 and walk southeast on the SRT approximately ¼ mile to the start of the story in the woods on the Right. The total loop from the Angstadt Trailhead is about 1.5 miles.

We will offer a free Turtle Walk in Spanish. We can only accommodate 30 people. Children must be 10 years or older to attend walks and all participants must be able to walk up to half a mile.

Latino Conservation Week: Disfrutando y Conservando Nuestra Tierra is an initiative of Hispanic Access Foundation (HAF). Latino Conservation Week was created to support the Latino community getting into the outdoors and participating in activities to protect our natural resources.
During this week, community, non-profit, faith-based, and government organizations and agencies hold events throughout the country. From hiking and camping to community roundtables and film screenings, these activities promote conservation efforts in their community, and provide an opportunity for Latinos to show their support for permanently protecting our land, water, and air.
This experience is facilitated by Outdoor Connections USA and the Virginia Key Outdoor Center. It is funded by the Hispanic Access Foundation. Thank you for all the sponsors and facilitators for making this possible!
Meet us on the water to connect and uncover what nature has for you here at Virginia Key!
Learn about the ecological and historical significance of the island on this 2-hour kayak and paddleboard Eco excursion. During our tour, participants will have the opportunity to encounter wildlife such as Herons, Egrets, Osprey, Manatees, Pelicans and Dolphins.
We launch from our tranquil lagoon. Guests will participate in an interpretive Eco Tour and learn about the history and ecology of Virginia Key.
Depending the conditions, guests will have the choice to snorkel at a rock piling where we have seen Sea Turtles, Lion Fish, and other sea life! If that spot is unavailable, participants can expect to snorkel around the grass bed and jetties. We have seen rays, different kinds of fish, eels, and sea turtles.
Participants MUST be 8 years old or older to participate. All Minors must be accompanied by parent or guardian.
This tour is 100% Free. Spots are VERY limited. You must RSVP by visiting: www.vkoc.net/lcw2022
Meet at Virginia Key Outdoor Center, 3801 Rickenbacker Causeway, Miami, FL 33149.
Please arrive at least 20-minutes before your event start time. Late arrivals are non-refundable.
This paddle is suitable for experienced beginners. Conditions will determine the length and final route. Not recommended for first-time paddleboarding or kayaking. We will paddle at a leisurely pace.
A brief introduction to kayaking and paddle-boarding is given before departure. Participants must be comfortable with water.
This experience is a challenge by choice, meaning you are not required to get into the water to snorkel. It would be fun if you do though :-) We will be snorkeling in maximum 5-6 feet of water (if high tide)

You are invited to join us for our monthly bird banding program at the GCBO headquarters in Lake Jackson on the third Saturday of each month from 8 a.m. to 12 p.m. Licensed bird banders and GCBO Research Associates Robert and Kay Lookingbill band at the sanctuary on a regular basis. Birds are captured for banding in very fine nylon nets known as “mist nets” because they are almost invisible in the environment. Captured birds are weighed and measured and their species, sex, and age are recorded. Each is fitted with an aluminum leg band with a unique number provided by the U.S. Fish & Wildlife Service and released unharmed. If the bird is captured again, the band provides the link to retrieve this history, which then provides important information on the routes used by migrating birds, their longevity, and general physical condition.
The purpose of the project is to establish baseline data for the GCBO property on both resident and migratory bird populations. About half of the 34-acre headquarters tract is old growth Columbia Bottomland hardwood forest. The remaining acreage is partially cleared woodland with the larger trees remaining, the new constructed wetland, and the edges of Buffalo Camp Bayou. Banding will allow us to obtain information about the physical condition of migrants at this intermediate location between the coast and the bottomland forests lying well inland. Both coastal woodlots and inland bottomland forests are known to be extremely important stopover habitats for nearctic-neotropical migrants that move through the Gulf of Mexico region. Birds that are captured for banding can provide valuable information about their relative physical condition. Fat deposits, which provide the fuel necessary for the arduous undertaking of the twice annual travel of hundreds to thousands of miles, can be estimated by examining handheld birds. Recently arrived migrants generally exhibit little or no fat, as their fuel “tank” is depleted by the long flights they have just finished. The importance of stopover habitat to migrants is that it provides them with both shelter and a source of rapid replenishment of the fat reserves necessary to continue migration. In addition, bird banding is an excellent form of public outreach and education.
Along with providing valuable data for conservation, banding is also a great way for the public to see birds up close! Come by to watch the banding process, learn about the birds, and get outside!

Birds that are captured for banding can provide valuable information about their relative physical condition. Fat deposits, which provide the fuel necessary for the arduous undertaking of the twice annual travel of hundreds to thousands of miles, can be estimated by examining handheld birds. Recently arrived migrants generally exhibit little or no fat, as their fuel “tank” is depleted by the long flights they have just finished. The importance of stopover habitat to migrants is that it provides them with both shelter and a source of rapid replenishment of the fat reserves necessary to continue migration. In addition, bird banding is an excellent form of public outreach and education.
Along with providing valuable data for conservation, banding is also a great way for the public to see birds up close! Come by to watch the banding process, learn about the birds, and get outside!
