Summer Through a Hand Lens

About

Hand lenses are a great way to investigate something up close and personal!

Naturalists tend to have a hand lens in their bags, whether or not they use them, as a good way to take a closer look at a subject.

In the summer months, there are so many things happening that we cannot see with our un-aided eyes: scales on butterfly wings, feather barbs, the fuzziness of plant leaves, and tiny fungi growing in the understory… the list goes on!

Join us for a new field trip, which will focus on looking closely and slowing down. Please bring a hand lens, if you have one. We do have hand lens for use at the Welcome Center, if you would like to borrow one!
