TAP TALK: UNCOVERING THE HIDDEN WORLD
Biodiversity conservation efforts depend on knowing where animals spend their time, but some are hard to find. So, scientists are using DNA from urine, feces, and skin cells in water and air samples to figure out where species live. Learn about this new survey method through FREE science activities (2-5pm) and a presentation by Dr. Tiffany Garcia (5:30-6:30pm). Purchase tasty food and drink, and Common Fields will donate 10% of total daily sales (dine-in & takeout: 11am – 8pm) in support of Winter Wildlife Field Days.

WINTER WILDLIFE FIELD DAYS: ECO SURVEYS
During the month of March, help create a better future by spending time outdoors and sharing what you find. Go outside, look, and listen. Then submit info on the location of your observations, current weather conditions, wildlife detected, and your experiences to a crowdsourced database using https://bit.ly/EcoSurveyForm. Each record contributes to our understanding of climate change and ways to deal with it.
