About this Event
Do you enjoy the wildflowers of urban parks or your own garden? Ever wonder which types of pollinators also enjoy them? Join participatory scientists from Earthwise Aware (EwA) and Ranger Tim at Lusitania Meadow to learn how you can help document arthropod activity around Fresh Pond and in your neighborhood.
What to Expect:
- Spend part of your afternoon with us in the meadow, learning how to identify arthropods and their host plants.
- Discover how to document their activity, length, abundance, and developmental stage.
- Use our mobile app, EwA Buggy, to record your findings. Make sure to register ahead of time by installing Anecdata (our host platform) and joining the EwA Buggy project (instructions).
Bonuses—Helping support urban conservation and a renewed sense of wonder!
⚠ Important Note: Please do not be a no-show! If you're unable to attend, kindly inform us a few days beforehand so we can offer your spot to someone else.
