Moskowitz will show wildlife photographs and tell stories about the region’s diverse flora and fauna. He also will share tips on how to find wild animals and interpret the signs they leave behind on the landscape, including tracks, feeding signs and scent marking.

Moskowitz is the author of “Caribou Rainforest,” “Wildlife of the Pacific Northwest” and “Wolves in the Land of Salmon.”

Port Book & News will have copies of Moskowitz’s books for purchase, and attendees will have an opportunity to have them signed by the author.

Following Moskowitz’s presentation, Sarah Spaeth will discuss some of the ongoing wildlife conservation work that is using tracking to help protect the region’s natural heritage.

Spaeth is the director of conservation and strategic partnerships at Jefferson Land Trust and also is a certified track and sign specialist.

The land trust also will present its 12th Out Standing in the Field award to the North Olympic Historic Center for its work to help the community learn to read the landscape through a historical lens.

The award honors those who make a difference for conservation efforts within the community.

Previous awardees include Ron Allen and the Natural Resources Department at the Jamestown S’Klallam Tribe, the Lower Elwha Klallam Tribe and its Natural Resources Department, Dick Goin, Jefferson Land Trust, photographers Pat O’Hara and John Gussman, Clallam Conservation District, Kaleen Cottingham, North Olympic Salmon Coalition and Tim McNulty.
