LEWISTON – Finding the signs of winter wildlife in the woods, fields and ponds of Thorncrag Nature Sanctuary awaits participants in the “Tracking at Thorncrag” field trip on Saturday, Feb. 23, sponsored by the Stanton Bird Club.

The group will meet at 9 a.m. in the Thorncrag parking lot off Montello Street. The program is expected to run until 11 a.m.

The group hopes to find and identify animal tracks, scat and other clues along the trails. Snowshoes or skis may be necessary if the snow is deep.

Stanton field trips are free and nonmembers are invited. For more information, contact trip leader Susan Hayward at 782-5238.
