Angelo Coast Range Reserve

27 Apr, 05 AM - 29 Apr, 05 AM

We propose to bring a group of 7th graders from Adams Middle school to study natural history at the Angelo Reserve. Activities include nature hikes, scavenger hunts, bird watching, assessing variation in size and coloration of western fence lizards, collecting and observing insects using a variety of techniques (sweep nets, aerial nets, pitfall traps, night lighting), live trapping small mammals, collecting and identifying common plants, measuring and aging trees (using cores and counting tree rings). Only small numbers of plants or insects will be collected and so collecting activities will have minimal impact on populations. All work with vertebrates is catch and release or is observational. The group will be led by 2 graduate students familiar with the site, and will be accompanied by the classroom teacher.
