Pollinators on
the Prairie with DCP
Summer is here; let’s explore! The hot days and long, warm evenings of
summer make it a great time to explore the natural world. On Saturday,
August 20th at 10am join a naturalist at Shawnee Prairie Preserve on
State Route 502 West for an exciting summer walk. As the parks wrap up
the summer they’ll search for pollinators at Shawnee’s expansive
prairie habitats. Expect to see butterflies, bees, wasps, and moths
visiting the various flowers. Be sure to dress for the sun and bring a
water bottle along. For more information about this or any of the other
exciting hikes in this season’s series or other Park District programs,
please call the Nature Center at (937) 548-0165.
