We would also like to thank the Corner Brook Public Library for having us! #Insects #Buzzaboutbugs #Moths #MUN #NatureNL

Join Us To Celebrate World Cleanup Day! 🗑🌱

Join Us To Celebrate World Cleanup Day! 🗑🌱 On September 20th, Stewardship Association of Municipalities Inc , The Town of Portugal Cove - St. Philip's , and Nature Newfoundland and Labrador invite you to help us celebrate World Cleanup Day at Voisey’s Brook Park from 10:00 AM - 12:00 PM. With increased use of the trail over the summer, litter has unfortunately become more visible along the trails. Lets give back to nature by restoring the trail to its natural beauty. Join us at our Cache In, Trash Out (CITO) event, searching for the Geocaches hiding throughout the trails while actively collecting litter. You can find the CITO Event Page here or by scanning the QR code: https://www.geocaching.com/.../GCBB765_cache-me-in-nature... The day will conclude with refreshments and a social at the hut. We can't wait to "cache" you on the trail! #WorldCleanupDay

Want to know why some rivers in NL are brown? Join

Want to know why some rivers in NL are brown? Join us for an evening with PhD candidate Kavi Heerah to learn more! About the talk:
The rivers of Newfoundland especially the rivers found in the barrens have high amounts of carbon and iron. This is what gives the water that dark brown colour. We know that the carbon from the barrens can carry more iron than other rivers but the why and the how is still being investigated. Our group has been sampling the Seal Cove River every month since 2020 hoping to learn more about the unique carbon in the rivers of Newfoundland. On this talk we’ll discuss: 1) what exactly gives the rivers of NL its brown colour, 2) how we can study the carbon in the river, and 3) why the rivers from the barrens matter for ocean productivity. #PublicTalk #Freshwater #HealthHabitats #WHC #Nature #Science

We had a blast this past Thursday night set up at @mun_botanical_garden for our annual Moth Night. We set up a "moth sheet" with a mercury vapor lamp, which emits light that attracts moths. We watched as moths landed on the sheet, allowing for close observation, photography, and identification. Other nocturnal insects, such as caddisflies, lacewings, and midges, were also observed. 📸 Drop a photo in the comment section of your super cool insect finds! A huge thank you to our dedicated volunteers, and the Memorial University Botanical Garden for attending and allowing us to use their beautiful space. Thank you to everyone who came out to this wonderful free event to check out the interesting and exciting nocturnal insect biodiversity at the Botanical Garden!
