Bug Safari
Join Susie Spikol, naturalist and author of The Animal Adventurer's Guide, for a late afternoon adventure searching and catching the wild bugs that call the meadow next to the library their home.
Use a sweep net, spy on a flower, sneak up on a butterfly, and stalk the wild crickets and grasshoppers. Discover why all insects are bugs, but not all bugs are insects!
Even if it rains, come to the library and explore a collection of wild visitors and a large college of preserved insects. You won't want to miss this hands-on chance to get up close with the mini-beasts in our everyday lives. Perfect for children in elementary school and up.
