Come learn about Michael Musnick’s fascinating studies of the North American Wood Turtle in the Great Swamp, which has provided valuable data to help protect this threatened species. Michael has developed a unique system of turtle bridges along the Metro North rail line, which allows the wood turtles to escape when stuck between the tracks.
Michael Musnick has worked with wood turtles for more than 10 years under permit from the federal government and the State of New York. He reports to both governing bodies, as well as to Friends of the Great Swamp, a Bedford Audubon partner.
This program is free and open to the public and pre-registration is not necessary.

The building is owned and operated by the Town of Southeast. All people in the Village of Brewster…Read More pay taxes to the Town of Southeast.

Um...Since I live in Southeast, I can't vote for Mayor of the Village of Brewster. So why do you…Read More think I, a taxpayer of Southeast, paid for this destruction when I really don't have a clue to what happens in the Village? There's a disconnect that needs to addressed.
