This is a time for the very earliest spring blooms and buds, frogs and salamanders, and increased bird
activity as the air gradually warms and water flows and puddles.
This walk is part of the Second Sunday Nature Exploration series for 2022, all at Ouabache Trails Park.
Walks are free and no registration is required. All are welcome, and families are encouraged.

Join Master Naturalist Terri Talarek King for a casual winter walk on Sunday, February 13, at
Ouabache Trails Park (just north of Vincennes, Indiana, at the end of Lower Fort Knox Road).
Participants will meet in front of the park office at 2:00 pm Eastern, then begin the walk nearby on
Trail 1.
This is a good time of year to see the “bones” of the landscape and trees, to observe wildlife that may
be out and about, to look for places where some are still overwintering, and to look for the earliest
signs of spring.
This walk, the first of the 2022 series of Second Sunday Nature Exploration Walks, is free, with no
registration required. All are welcome and families are encouraged. Emphasis on all walks is on
observation, exploration, and discovery. Walks proceed rain, shine, or snow. Be prepared for wet areas
and some steep slopes.
For questions or more information, email leapingfrog55@yahoo.com or leave a voice message (no text)
