Aquatic Creatures with Dawn Marvin Ward & Friends of the Great Falls Discovery Center Annual Meeting

May 24, 2015

Wednesday, June 24, Aquatic Creatures with Naturalist Dawn Marvin Ward and USFWS staff Laurel Carpenter and the Friends of the Great Falls Discovery Center Annual Meeting.

At 6:30 p.m. a short business meeting for the Friends of the Great Falls Discovery Center will occur before the Aquatic Creatures slideshow presentation. Learn how to be a Friend and get involved!

Please join naturalist Dawn Marvin Ward and USFWS Discovery Center staff Laurel Carpenter for a slideshow presentation on Aquatic Creatures. Summer is a great time to get out and explore ponds and wetlands to see what all lies beneath. Many may only think of fish when they think of wetland creatures- you may be surprised at how many flying insects start in wetlands. Learn the differences between a vernal pool and a pond or amphibians and reptiles or crayfish and fairy shrimp!
