CE: Taking a Closer Look at Prairies
Join us on a discovery hike as we observe the prairie up-close with Chris Helzer, Director of Science with the Nature Conservancy in Nebraska! Hike through the bluffs while taking a detailed look at the life present out on the prairie. Observe early-blooming wildflowers among the grasses, tiny native bees and other insects and learn about the important roles they play in the ecosystem. Chris brings the tiny, hidden gems of the prairie into focus through his incredible macro photography and his writing. Hikers will also enjoy the opportunity to learn a few tips and tricks for photographing tiny subjects out in nature. Meet at the Education Center at Gjerloff Prairie at 9:30am. This event is part of our Saturdays at Gjerloff Prairie series, running from May 6 - June 10, 2023.
