About the event
The Barrens to Bald Eagle Wildlife Corridor was conserved by ClearWater Conservancy in 2010 to create safe passage for wildlife species between Bald Eagle Mountain and the Scotia Barrens. Hike along the rolling grassy trails and look for the many signs of life here. A wildflower meadow provides pollinator habitat for bees, moths, insects, and birds. Young forest supports the Golden-winged Warbler, Amercian Woodcock, and Ruffed Grouse. Vernal pools allow for breeding amphibians.
