Students used microscopes today to learn about seed dispersal mechanisms. This is a microscopic photo of a seed of Showy Tick-Trefoil (Desmodium canadense). What do see? What do you think the dispersal mechanism is? #botany#STEMeducation#science#school#nativeplants#STEM
#LongIsland#Ecology students encountered 2 “creepy crawly creatures” yesterday while working in our #nativegarden courtyard. 1st a wooly bear caterpillar (Pyrrharctia isabella) & then a Giant Leopard Moth caterpillar (Hypercompe scribonia). Our #school supports #biodiversity!
Signs of Life
Our #school#nativegarden supports #biodiversity so students can be inspired by, engage & learn about nature while make their own discoveries right here @Northport_HS
This is an Armyworm Moth #caterpillar, most likely the species Spodoptera ornithogalli.
