SUMMARY:Signs of Spring: Memory Zines and Phenology
DESCRIPTION:What tells you it is spring? How do other kinds of organisms know it is spring\, and what does that mean for them? Join us in looking for signs of spring around Prairie Ridge for this program for adults and learn how you can contribute your own observations to phenology monitoring efforts. Following our walk we will return to the classroom for a zine-making workshop on time\, memory\, seasons\, and the profound changes that take place around us each year and connect us to the more-than-human world.\n\nCome dressed for the weather wearing closed toed shoes and ready for a walk of about a half mile over uneven ground\, and bring a notebook and water. Zine-making materials will be provided.\nRegister here

SUMMARY:Live Animal Feeding: Lobster
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a live feeding of the Maine lobster in the Arthropod Zoo and meet Living Collections staff. This clawed crustacean is formidable and feisty with a tough exoskeleton to help it survive. Many crustaceans incorporate minerals like lime into their exoskeleton\, which thickens and strengthens it. \nThis walk-up program is offered: \n\nTuesday and Saturday — 1:30pm\n\nLocation: Nature Exploration Center\, 4th floor\, Arthropod Zoo. \nNo registration required.
