Sagehen Creek Field Station

24 Oct, 05 AM - 26 Oct, 05 AM

We will bring a group of 15 students from Adams Middle School for a three day visit during which our two grad student fellows will introduce the students to the habitats and organisms of Sagehen and demonstrate various techniques for the study of ecology and natural history. Activities will include insect collecting (sweep nets, blacklighting for night flying insects), study of plant identification and adaptation (which may include a small amount of collecting and pressing of plant specimens), small mammal trapping, exploring aquatic life in the creek, examining vertebrate specimen (skins and skulls) from the collection, orientation and natural history hikes. All activities will be low impact and care will be taken to avoid disturbing organisms and ongoing research.
