SUMMARY:Community Science Night
DESCRIPTION:(MD) (Montgomery Parks) Are you interested in learning about local wildlife and helping out nature. Then check out our Community Science program at Locust Grove Nature Center. Nighttime is often the best chance to encounter wildlife such as owls\, foxes\, bats\, and frogs. Join a Naturalist for a guided wildlife-monitoring walk and help document the species that make their home here. Each session introduces participants to the iNaturalist app (please download ahead of time)\, which we’ll use to record photos and sounds of the plants and animals we discover.  Ages 16 +.
