Joining us from the Center for Environmental Education & Discovery (CEED), Ranger Eric will discuss the quail life cycle and how useful they are to naturally protecting our Long Island environment from tick invasions.
An informative and interactive family program.
"Ranger Eric," as students know him, is a biologist, teacher, photographer, outdoorsman, and overall nature-lover. He started leading nature hikes in 1987 as a Park Ranger in Colorado until he served two years in the US Peace Corps as Environmental Education Officer. Since then, he has been running nature centers in Colorado, Alabama, and New York. In 2005, he started his dream company, YOUR CONNECTION TO NATURE (YC2N), because so many kids are so detached from nature and wildlife. Our programs connect classrooms to field studies and give people a better understanding of their local environment. His on-going wildlife projects include "Save Our Box Turtles," "Quail vs Ticks Study," and "Owl Nesting Projects."
