The nonprofit Edison Wetlands Association (EWA) will host a public hike in the Dismal Swamp Conservation Area starting at their popular Triple C Ranch and Nature Center at 6 PM on Wednesday, March 20, 2013.

Leading the tour, Robert Spiegel, EWA’s Execeutive Director, will explore nature in twilight, as diurnal animals find rest and nocturnal animals start to emerge from slumber and start their nightly hunt for food. Animals such as great horned owls, beavers, red foxes, salamanders, and bats may be spotted.

Visitors must RSVP as space is limited. Please call out offices at 732-321-1300 and leave a message with your name, phone number, and total persons in your party.
