Have you ever found a snake and wondered what it was, what it’s doing, or whether or not you should worry? Join us for this introductory class and learn which snakes are found in Maryland, how they live their lives, and how to separate snake fact from snake fiction. We will touch on a range of topics, including snake identification, biology, and behavior. This is a perfect class for nature-lovers and beginner naturalists looking to learn more about our slithery neighbors.
