SUMMARY:Kids Class: How Insects Help Birds Thrive
DESCRIPTION:Join Eastside Audubon on Saturday\, August 15 at 9:00 a.m. at Marymoor Park for a fun\, hands-on morning exploring how insects\, birds\, and mammals all depend on one another. \nDesigned for kids ages 8–12\, this free program reveals why insects are so important to healthy ecosystems. Children will learn how insects pollinate plants\, recycle nutrients\, and provide a vital food source for birds and mammals. From chickadees feeding caterpillars to their chicks to bats catching insects in flight\, nature is full of amazing connections waiting to be discovered. \nOur guide is Sue Andersen\, a naturalist\, educator\, and conservation advocate with more than 25 years of experience sharing invertebrates\, reptiles\, and birds with audiences of all ages. Sue received the Governor’s Washingtonian of the Day Award for her work saving endangered species and earned a scholarship to the Captive Management and Breeding of Imperiled Butterflies Program. She’ll be joined by David Droppers\, one of the Pacific Northwest’s most respected naturalists\, who has taught thousands of people about birds\, butterflies\, and insects through the University of Washington and the North Cascades Institute. \nEach child must be accompanied by an adult\, and grown-ups are encouraged to join in too. Best of all\, this family-friendly program is completely free! \nCome explore\, learn\, and discover how even the smallest creatures help keep birds singing and wildlife thriving. \nImage sourced from event website.
