SUMMARY:Introduction to Birding Class
DESCRIPTION:Interested in bird watching but not sure where to begin? Join us at the Nature Center for our Intro to Birding Class where we will help you establish a foundation of the essential tools and knowledge needed to enjoy birding in your backyard and out on the trails.  \nThe first part of the class will consist of classroom-style learning about observing and identifying birds in their natural habitat. The second part of the class (weather permitting) will allow for an opportunity to put new skills into practice by birding on one of our nature trails. \n[swcheckout site=”6″ item=”114631″]

SUMMARY:Science and Nature Lecture with Sara Klingensmith
DESCRIPTION:Join us as we explore seasonal natural history phenomena of Powdermill Nature Reserve! A lecture will be given in the Parker Room at 2 pm\, followed by a short outdoor exploration. Lectures are structured for adult audiences\, and children under the age of 18 must be accompanied by an adult. Pre-registration is required as space is limited. Program participants and visitors are expected to adhere to the public health guidance and Carnegie Museums of Pittsburgh procedures in place at the time of their visit. \nFungi are ubiquitous\, yet underexplored and understudied. From massive mushrooms and mile-long mycelium to tiny yeasts and rusts\, fungi are responsible for many ecosystem services. Learn about the ecological relationships of fungi as recyclers\, symbionts\, parasites\, and even predators! Afterwards\, hit the trail and explore mushrooms commonly found in the fall.   \nThis program does not contain any information on edibility or toxicity of mushrooms.   \n[swcheckout site=”6″ item=”111236″]

SUMMARY:Identify Fall Warblers Class
DESCRIPTION:Because of different molt strategies\, many warblers look vastly different during fall migration than they did during the spring and summer seasons. Join us at the Nature Center where we will discuss tools to help you identify those confusing fall warblers.The first part of the class will consist of classroom-style learning about observing and identifying fall warblers. The second part of the class (time and weather permitting) will allow for an opportunity to put new skills into practice by birding on one of our nature trails.  \nPlease wear outdoor-friendly shoes.

SUMMARY:From the Field: Borneo Expedition Recap with Dr. Jennifer Sheridan
DESCRIPTION:Join Dr. Jennifer Sheridan\, Assistant Curator of Reptiles and Amphibians\, for a FREE\, fascinating talk about her expedition to the Southeast Asian island this summer. Sheridan is a tropical conservation ecologist. Her research interests are ecological responses to changes in both climate and habitat & land use. She utilizes frogs as study organisms but with an eye for how they fit into the ecosystem as a whole. Catch up on her social media posts from the field. \nSpace in the Earth Theater is limited\, you must register for a spot below. \n[gravityform id=”92″ title=”false” description=”true”]

SUMMARY:Moriarty Science Seminar: Natural history\, ecology\, and evolution in the invasive Japanese stiltgrass
DESCRIPTION:R.W. Moriarty Science Seminar Presents: Natural history\, ecology\, and evolution in the invasive Japanese stiltgrass\nSpeaker: Craig Barrett\, West Virginia University \nThis event will take place Monday\, September 26 at Noon both online and at Earth Theater. \nAbstract: Invasive species cause billions of US dollars in damage\, degrade natural and agricultural lands\, spread disease\, and threaten biodiversity. One such species\, Microstegium vimineum (stiltgrass)\, is native to eastern Asia\, and has become highly invasive in the US over the past 100 years. First discovered in Tennessee in 1919\, this species has spread to 30 US states from Texas to New York and is now in Canada. What factors drive invasiveness in this and other species? While the ecological impacts of invasive species are well studied\, the rapid evolution of invasive traits has only begun to be explored. Barrett’s research integrates phenotypic (i.e. physical characteristics of the plants)\, environmental\, and genomic data in order to identify the causes of invasiveness in plants. Eradication of this this well-established invader is highly unlikely at this point in time\, and the sheer cost of doing so would be unimaginable. Instead\, his ultimate goal is to use stiltgrass as a model to help predict and prevent future invasions. \n. \nRegister Now
