SUMMARY:Conservancy Days: Moths of the Conservancy
DESCRIPTION:Join Angus Mossman to share some awe and wonder at what might be happening just outside your window as darkness sets in. In addition to seeing some jaw-dropping creatures\, this presentation will touch on the ecology and natural history of a variety of local moths and other nocturnal insects\, and how they fit into the landscape of southern Wisconsin. \nAngus Mossman grew up in Sauk Co. exploring the world alongside biologist parents Mike Mossman and Lisa Hartman. A few years travelling and studying around the world brought him back to the special place that is southern Wisconsin. By day\, you can find Angus exploring the world with kids at Tower Rock Elementary School\, and by night wandering around some prairie or swamp with a flashlight in hand. \nRegistration required—sign up at middleton.recdesk.com. \nConservancy Days occur at 6pm on the third Thursday of the month at the Middleton Public Library\, 7425 Hubbard Ave.

SUMMARY:Conservancy Days: Fire Ecology with Scott Fulton
DESCRIPTION:The ecological landscape of most of North America prior to European settlement was strongly influenced by widespread and frequent fires set by humans. Our more recent suppression of fire has profoundly altered the ecology of our region in many ways and efforts to restore pre-settlement natural communities such as prairies and oak savannas rely heavily on the use of prescribed fire. This talk will give a brief introduction to the ecology and history of landscape fire\, as well as how prescribed fires are safely conducted in practice. \nAbout the presenter: Scott Fulton is a Wisconsin Master Naturalist instructor and a past president of The Prairie Enthusiasts. He has worked as a volunteer prescribed fire crew member for over 20 years and is a member of the Wisconsin Prescribed Fire Council\, involved in fire education. \nRegistration required—REGISTER HERE \nConservancy Days occur at 6pm on the third Thursday of the month at the Middleton Public Library\, 7425 Hubbard Ave.
