Please be careful driving and lookout for turtles! This Snapping Turtle was crossing Frogtown and not very efficiently. As it’s egg laying season for turtles, they are on the move. Be mindful and be on the lookout. #newcanaan #newcanaanct #newcanaanmoms #newcanaannewcomers #newcanaanparents #townofnewcanaan @newcanaannaturecenter #snappingturtlesofinstagram #snappingturtle #connecticut

Are you ready for Migration Madness? The peak sea

Are you ready for Migration Madness? The peak season for migrating birds is upon us. Join Migration Madness -- the fifth annual celebration of Connecticut birds on Sunday, May 15th, 10 am at Bristow Sanctuary.

Patrick Comins @patrickcommings , executive director of the Connecticut Audubon Society and master birder, will lead a bird walk in Bristow Sanctuary. What a great way to take our amazing spring and see the migrating birds and our resident birds in the amazing 98-year old Bristow Sanctuary.

Go to CTaudubon.org and follow the links for Migration Madness Schedule to register.

Registrants should meet at the Mead Park concession stand.

Sponsored by @ctaudubon, the Conservation Commission and the @bristowpark_birdsanctuary.

Our last post on May Fair - obviously we just had too much fun. Our very own co-founder Margot was on double (triple?) duty volunteering at the Food Scrap stations and baking shortcake and running the dog show. Kristen - on Strawberry Shortcake duty of course. Do not fear, the pizza will become compost. @stmarksnewcanaan #strawberryshortcake #newcanaan #newcanaanct #newcanaanmoms #livenewcanaan #connecticut

How lucky are we to have some volunteers help put together our food scrap stations for @stmarksnewcanaan May Fair. It was like Lego for adults. #newcanaan #newcanaanct #newcanaanmoms #livenewcanaan #newcanaannewcomers #foodrecycling #sustainablect

Talk about New Canaan organizations helping each o

Talk about New Canaan organizations helping each other! @ncbeautificationleague will be planting native perennials purchased by @newcanaanlibrary at the Library and then, @newcanaanlibrary will donate those perennials back to @ncbeautificationleague in the Fall, to be used around town. The plants were purchased through the @planetnewcanaan native plant sale with @copiahomeandgarden so the purchase of these perennials will help us get native plants for @newcanaannaturecenter The native plant sale runs through June 30th! Buy $75 of native plants and @copiahomeandgarden will donate $10 worth of native plants to @newcanaannaturecenter Just mention Planet New Canaan to ensure credit. #newcanaan #newcanaanct #livenewcanaan #newcanaanmoms #newcanaannewcomers #townofnewcanaan #sustainablect

Get outside and enjoy New Canaan’s Greenlinks! Grabbing our maps (currently available @walterstewartsmarket @newcanaannaturecenter @newcanaanmuseum and soon online) we started off at Irwin, took the @nc_land_trust Greenlink to @newcanaannaturecenter then walked down Oenoke, to Elm, down to Pine - with an important pit stop @zumbachscoffee - into Mead Park, to @bristowpark_birdsanctuary (where we met many frogs sunbathing) and then back to Irwin. 5mile walk entirely on sidewalks. Longer walks are mapped out as well. Get out and enjoy nature! #newcanaan #newcanaanct #newcanaanmoms #livenewcanaan #newcanaannewcomers #newcanaanparents #sustainablect #townofnewcanaan
