Show Notes

Welcome back to Walkin' on the Wild Side and we have a special podcast in store!  For this episode, Gabrielle and Marvin head up to the great white North, to Sax Zim Bog in northern Minnesota.  This amazing place is an incredible mix of habitats that attract a whole host of boreal species such as northern owl species, winter finches, and a diversity of other critters like ermine, snowshoe hare, etc.  Join us as we broadcast from the bog and share observations, fun facts, and interesting tidbits about this wonderful and beautiful bog!
