Critter Catch

Event Summary

CRITTER CATCH 

Saturday, May 30, 9 a.m.-noon 

Help us celebrate the vital importance of wetlands to our ecological, economic, and social health. All are invited for a hands-on wetland exploration to discover what critters are living in or around the water near Wickiup Hill Learning Center. As part of a water quality assessment, participants will use nets to catch frogs, crawdads, snails, and insects hatching throughout the wetlands. Linn County Conservation Naturalists will help you identify critters and will have microscopes on hand for viewing and identifying samples as well.  Also be sure to check out the on-site exhibits, displays, and activities provided by partner organizations. Come and go from 9 a.m. – noon. Free, no registration required.
