📜 EwA Week Highlights: Funga Feast, Fast Moving Web Spiders, EwA Walks & More...

[Claire O'Neill]

📸  So many great sightings again this week, including countless fungi (as it has been for the past few months) - Go Funga! We're delighted to see that our past Summer interns are active recording species out there (Kate we miss you!). Now, if we have to pick one favorite sighting this week, then I'll go with a fast American Nursery Web Spider that we spotted today at the EwA's Forest Exploration event. I missed the shot of the beauty, but Jef got it!...

📅 EwA Coming Public Events

EwA Field Events » Check our public field events on the EwA Calendar, we have several walks Nov 12th and 13th [ See EwA events calendar to register » ] Don't miss great opportunities to follow the rhythm of the season in our local habitats and of its wildlife!. Space is limited for all our field events. Wildlife ethics is important to us and we seek to avoid putting pressure on natural habitats that large gatherings unavoidably do. We are asking our audience to register-and-commit to avoid no-shows (or cancel when you know you can't come)

■ EwA Fieldwork (& Resources)

We are monitoring phenology and entomofauna weekly at all sites. Our biodiversity and habitat documentation fieldwork is also as healthy as ever thanks to our group of core citizen scientists who simply rock!
