Join us at Ku-ring-gai Wildflower Garden for a hands-on citizen science bug hunt, where we’ll explore the garden and discover the incredible diversity of insects and other invertebrates living around us.
With the help of our guides, you’ll learn how to safely search for bugs, identify what you find and record your observations. From colourful butterflies and busy bees to beetles, spiders and the many tiny creatures hiding among the leaves and flowers, there’s always something to discover.
Your observations can contribute to citizen science, helping build a better understanding of the wildlife found across Ku-ring-gai.
No previous knowledge or experience is needed, just bring your curiosity and a keen eye for spotting bugs!
Children are welcome as long as they accompanied at all times by an adult.
This is an easy grade walk around the Wildflower Gardens, on uneven and unpaved surfaces with some slopes.
Wear: Comfortable outdoor clothing, enclosed shoes, hat, sunscreen.
Bring: water bottle.
Location: meet at Dampier's Clearing, Ku-ring-gai Wildflower Garden, 420 Mona Vale Road, St Ives.
The event will run in light rain. Under more extreme weather conditions the event will be cancelled.
