In this second installment of our insect JAMs, we will briefly review insect basics before going outside to collect some specimens.  We will learn some of the tools entomologists use to collect different kinds of insects, where to hunt for them, and techniques for gently catching and containing them for us to observe.  We will not kill or harm any insects…we are just capturing them long enough to get a close look at them.  Even if you don’t capture any, you will certainly see them on our many blooming flowers and will be able to observe their behavior in their natural habitat. NOTE: You can think of this as a two-part JAM, but attendance of one is not required for the other!

Registration opens on June 5th at 10:00 am
