SUMMARY:Conservancy Day: What Can Dragonflies Tell You About Your Neighborhood?
DESCRIPTION:Dragonflies are a common summer sight near water bodies in our neighborhoods. The larvae spend from one to five years in the water before emerging as flying adults. They are fierce predators\, feeding on anything and everything that they can catch and subdue. In turn\, these larvae serve as food for fish\, frogs\, and salamanders. They can tell us how the condition of our lakes\, ponds\, wetlands\, and streams is changing. Join Dr. Robert Bohanan as he discusses the 15 years of citizen science research he has done with K-12 teachers and students\, college students and members of the community. He will explain what studying dragonflies can tell us about the ecology of our neighborhoods. You will learn ways you can set up your own studies to contribute to this important citizen science initiative. \nDr. Robert Bohanan is an ecologist with 30 years of experience in teaching\, research\, and outreach\, most of which has included citizen science research. Robert’s research interests have included sunfish and zooplankton\, stream ecology\, red wing blackbirds\, damselflies\, midge larvae\, and the effects of land use\, land cover\, and water quality on dragonflies. Though his interests are many and varied\, dragonflies have been a constant. \nRSVPs appreciated but not necessary. \nEvery Conservancy Day is: \n\nFree — thanks to your donations and membership as a Friend\nOpen to the public\nFor all ages unless a specific age group is given in the program description\nDiverse topics — More than 400 participants each year enjoy topics ranging from wildlife\, science\, resource management\, natural and cultural history and current community issues\n\nThank you for your generous gifts and participation. You make it possible and you make it great! We welcome you to join us and help spread the word! Mark your calendars for these inspiring and special events the third Thursday of each month\, from January through November.

SUMMARY:Bock Prairie Workday
DESCRIPTION:Join in tending the new prairies at the John C. Bock Community Forest. The prairies are a great example of high quality restoration on public lands. We’ll meet at the garden shed in the middle of the enclosed garden. It’s on Highland Way\, just off Century Avenue\, at the crest of the hill east of Allen Blvd. There’s a stop light at the intersection of Century and Highland – turn at the light and follow the road until you see the garden area on the left at the end of the open field. There’s lots of on-street parking.\n \nDress for the weather\, and wear long pants\, socks and sturdy shoes. Long sleeves and hats are also recommended – along with insect repellent and sunscreen. Bring your favorite work gloves if you have some. \n \nPlease RSVP if you’re planning to come to help with planning enough supplies for everyone.\n \nThis is a work session for members of the Bock Community Garden lead by Adaptive Restorations. Each year\, the Bock Gardeners invite the Friends to join them.
