Marion Natural History Museum178 viewsThanks to state forester Felicia Hubacz, the Marion Natural History Museum offered a program on forestry health last week. We learned a little about some of the pests that are plaguing our local trees, such as the emerald ash borer, the Asian long horned beetle, and the gypsy moth. We also had an opportunity to learn what types of pests are affecting our white pine and red pine populations and why and what the state Department of Conservation and Recreation is doing to combat this issue, including the introOct 28, 2021

Marion Natural History Museum196 viewsOn October 20, the Marion Natural History Museum’s after-school group spent time learning a little about our migrating bird populations. We found out that the Arctic tern migrates 50,000 miles, which is the longest distance of any bird. The ruby-throated hummingbird can migrate as far as Mexico and Central America in search of flowers and insects. We then went on a bird walk and managed to find a mourning dove, blue jay, European starling, black-capped chickadee, and belted kingfisher, among other birds. Oct 28, 2021
