Water. It's pretty important. After all, the body can only go about three days without it. So why are we trying so hard to get rid of it? In fact, in the last 100 years, we've designed our cities and towns to shed water like it's going out of style. Now we're seeing the consequences. Join us as we discuss why we should slow water down and give you some ideas on how to keep it around. Join us as we discuss the Pennsylvania Game Commission's plan to restore the Bobwhite to its native range in Pennsylvania. Along the way, we discuss the Bobwhite's habitat needs, describe what this bird looks like, and provide a real-time update on its re-introduction to the Keystone State (and yes, there are some fun facts). Join us as we discuss the grand opening of the Bridgewater Interpretive Trail. We'll find out what interpretive points are offered on the trail, some of the difficulties we ran into throughout the planning process, and who the trail is intended for. P.S. Join us on April 22, 2024, at 10 AM as we unveil the Bridgewater Interpretive Trail at 89 Industrial Drive, Montrose, PA. It's a new month and that means we're covering some popular eco-news and some eco-news that's flying under the radar. This month we're digging into an obscure story on an invasive insect, exploring the topic of fire for restoration, and delivering some good news on a fungus that's been decimating cave-dwelling bats in North America. We'll even spend some time at the beech 😎. Don't miss this episode!
Spring has sprung (well, kind of). Join us as we discuss how you can help our avian species this spring as they prepare for nesting in the northeast. Join us as we cover food, shelter, and ways to minimize your pesticide use. It's National Invasive Awareness Week and we've picked out some of our most loathed aliens. Join us as we discuss these unwanted guests and the problems they're causing here in the Commonwealth. From extreme hurricanes to fireflies that dabble with cannibalism join us as we cover eco-news headlines from the last month.
During most years, one owl species appears in the Northeast, not because of migration but because their favorite grub has dwindled. From Harry Potter to park benches, this episode has something for everyone. Join us as we discuss the Snowy Owl!
