CAPTIVATING CATERPILLARS

Eddy Discovery Center
Address: 17030 Bush Rd, Chelsea, MI 48118, USA

CAPTIVATING CATERPILLARS: 2:00 – 3:30 p.m., Sunday, September 11.  Spiny and smooth, colorful and camouflaged, hairy and hairless, caterpillars are an amazingly diverse group of animals!   Join naturalist Faye Stoner in this program to explore the world of caterpillars around us.  We will begin indoors looking at traits that help us identify caterpillars as well as learning how they protect themselves, what they eat, and more.   Afterwards, we will take a walk outside to learn special techniques for finding them.  You are welcome to bring caterpillars to share with others.  Program suitable for ages 8 and up.  Cost: $2/person or $5/family.  Eddy Discovery Center, 17030 Bush Rd. in the Waterloo Recreation Area near Chelsea.   Advance registration required at 734-475-3170, as this program is limited to 35 people.
