Join us to discover the many types of insects at Prairie Ridge! We’ll explore to find and photograph as many species as possible. We will observe insects close up and learn how to sweep net. We’ll also teach you how to use iNaturalist so your future photos can become a part of the City Nature Challenge, an international event focused on documenting biodiversity that starts on Friday April 24th.
This program is best for adults and children ages 8+. Please come dressed for the weather as we will be outside, mostly in the sun the entire length of the program. Bring a filled water bottle and a camera (phone or point and shoot). If possible, download the iNaturalist app and create an account prior to the start of the program. We will meet in front of the building next to the parking lot before walking as a group down the prairie down the hill near the outdoor classroom, about a five-minute walk from the parking lot.
Registration is required to attend this program.
