Nurturing Winter Wildlife

Winter is officially upon us and we need to be aware our surroundings as colder temperatures and snow are now part of the landscape. So unless of you are in Hawaii, Florida, or Southern California the winter ecosystem changes gear. In the colder climates, animals have to adapt to the habitat, and trees and other plant based life are in a more dormant state. Which species hibernate, and how do the birds that don’t fly south adapt to the weather? Victoria Alzapiedi, our resident wildlife and nature expert gives us some great information on what goes on in the winter months in the animal and plant world, and how we can help and co-exist with the flora and fauna.  Victoria is the President of Friends of Buttonhook Forest which is working to save 20.3 acres of a magical ecosystem with over 670 mature trees, which is a Watershed with abundant wildlife and contains Native American Complex Ceremonial Sacred Stones. Victoria started the Facebook group “The Nature of Westchester” an active community of nature lovers which now has more than 4000 members.
