SUMMARY:Misunderstood Monsters
DESCRIPTION:Vultures\, snakes\, spiders…folklore and culture can make them scary\, but do we really need to fear them? In this program we’ll tour Prairie Ridge looking for some of these “monsters\,” talk about their history and culture\, and then dive into the benefits of having these animals in our environment! \nThis program is for adults ages 18 and up. Please dress for the weather\, wear closed-toed shoes\, and bring water. Downloading the iNaturalist and Merlin apps will be helpful but not necessary. We will meet at the green entrance gate by the entrance kiosk.  No preregistration necessary.
