Dr. Joe Wood from the Chesapeake Bay Foundation will present about freshwater mussel species and how to identify various bivalves using iNaturalist.
Use your evening to become a participatory scientist, engaging in scientific discovery and helping increase our knowledge about mussels in our waters.
The workshop is indoors, and light snacks and drinks will be provided. This event is part of a series focusing on Virginia’s flora and fauna made possible by a grant from the Seeding Action program, sponsored by the Association of Science and Technology Centers in conjunction with iNaturalist.
Supplies
We will be working on computers using iNaturalist. A laptop is preferred (instead of a tablet or phone). When you register for the event, you can request to borrow a computer if needed. No experience with iNaturalist is required.
