Today the focus is on our small but mighty (and mighty important!) pollinators\, who play a key role in keeping our desert beautiful and providing food for many animals\, including humans! W e explore from flies to butterflies\, gnats to bats\, and so much more! Th ree different 35-minute workshops will take place on the half-hour startin g at 9:00am and Rangers Jacque\, Nikki and Olivia will be your guides. Po llinators: Celebrities like bees\, butterflies and hummingbirds get most of the attention but let’s not forget about the low-key beetles\, ants\, moths and more that keep the system in motion. You can also take part in a relay race to experience some of the obstacles a pollinator must overcom e to get the job done. Invasive Species: Learn about some of the invasiv e\, non-native plants in our area that take over habitat and prevent nativ e plants from growing – and reduce food available to our pollinators! Yo u can also play a game to see how human and natural factors impact the sur vival and success of our native species. The struggle is real! Plant a Se ed: Become a Pollinator Protector by planting native seeds in a pot that you can take home. Find out which plant types and colors attract different pollinators so you can create a mini oasis in your back yard. \nOptional: Enhance your experience by creating a citizen science record of observati ons we make today (we’ll talk more about that during class!) using your phone or tablet. Download the free iNaturalist app and create an account a t home beforehand\, as there is limited connectivity in the park. (Seek by iNaturalist is an alternative that is geared toward younger users and doe s not use location data). \nOne workshop takes place on the Nature Center ’s shaded back patio\, one workshop is split between indoors and outdoor s\, and one is outdoors the entire time. There is minimal walking on compa cted gravel trail surfaces near the Nature Center and asphalt in the parki ng lot for the games. Wear closed-toe shoes\, sun protective clothing and a hat. Be sure to bring plenty of water. Restrooms and water are available at the Nature Center. \nMEETING LOCATION: Nature Center \nNo pre-registra tion required. Upon arrival at the Nature Center\, add your name to the Si gnup Sheet for the Start Time that you want: 9:00am\, 9:40am\, 10:20am\, 1 1:00am\, 11:40am. All three topics (Pollinators\, Invasive Species and Pla nt a Seed) are available at each Start Time and workshops run concurrently . There is a limit of 20 people per time slot. Be sure to give yourself en ough time (2 hours) to take part in all three sessions before the event en ds at 12:15pm! \nAges 6 – 12 LAST-MODIFIED:20260917T182656Z LOCATION:Usery Mountain Regional Park\, 3939 N.

Integrating cutt ing-edge DNA research with personal insights\, Harden examines the tension between biological constraints and human agency through the lenses of add iction\, violence\, and antisocial behavior. Rather than using science to absolve wrongdoers or make guilt obsolete\, she challenges readers to reck on differently with fairness. Ultimately\, this revelatory inquiry urges u s to move past ancient nature-versus-nurture debates to imagine a more hum ane\, realistic vision of accountability for ourselves and society.\n\nKat hryn Paige Harden is a professor in the department of psychology at the Un iversity of Texas at Austin\, where she leads the Developmental Behavior G enetics lab. Harden received her PhD in clinical psychology from the Unive rsity of Virginia and completed her clinical internship at McLean Hospital /Harvard Medical School. She has been honored by the American Psychologica l Association for her distinguished scientific contributions to the study of genetics and human individual differences.
