Dynamic Detritivores at Connecticut Audubon’s Coastal Center on Saturday

Detritus! What in the world is that? Come find out Saturday, June 8, 10:30 to 11:30 a.m. at Connecticut Audubon’s Coastal Center, 1 Milford Point Rd. in Milford. The Center’s salt marsh will be your lab to learn about detritus and the critters that feast on this key component of the ecosystem.

Explore fiddler crab tunnels, and catch and release these animals that play a crucial environmental role through their unique diet. Nets and buckets provided. Wear rain boots or waterproof shoes that can get wet and muddy. The more mud, the merrier!

All ages welcome. CAS Members $7/child; Non-members $10/child. Pre-registration is required at: https://www.ctaudubon.org/2019/04/dynamic-detritivores/
