THE AMAZING WORLD OF LICHENS

September 15   2-4pm

Lichens are everywhere on trees and rocks but we hardly notice them.  They are fascinating organisms composed of two partners. Many of them are sensitive to air pollution. Some are sources of pigments, others supply nesting material for over 60 birds, and still others provide 90 percent of the winter diet of reindeer.  This program will cover the natural history of lichens in a PowerPoint program inside and will be followed by an outside walk on the trails. Bring a 10x loupe if you have one.

Pre-registration required by calling 908-766-5787. $7 for members, $12 for non-members. Held at the Scherman Hoffman Wildlife Sanctuary, 11 Hardscrabble Road, Bernardsville
