The seashore is filled with life and sound even in the heart of winter, and a walking visit has been planned for an Island Park area shoreline.
An outing to Jones Beach is on the horizon for local nature lovers, and it will offer a fun and easy introduction to how the plants and animals that call the site home make it through the cold of winter. It will be a one-mile excursion over sand, and it is free to sign up.
The group will take to the dunes at the beach, looking for animal tracks, plants, shells and other natural materials as they go. They will have an opportunity to find out what makes the site both unique and an important habitat for local wildlife, and everyone who participates may want to make sure they have their camera or phone ready to take pictures. Dressing for the weather and full water bottle are recommended for all the walkers.
An organized outing can be both fun and informative. Spreading the word about this style of function can be made easy with help from a flyer printing company.
This visit to Jones Beach during the brisk weather of a winter morning will be held on January 22. While registration is free, a $4 in-person fee will be collected before the group heads out.
