DESCRIPTION:Understand how insects impact the world around us. \nThis is a
 n in-person program.\nCan you name a dozen types of trees? Flowers? Mammal
 s?  Probably.\nCan you name a dozen types of the most abundant animals on 
 earth?  Maybe not.\nThere are more types of insects on earth than all the 
 other animals and plants combined\, yet we know so little about them.  Sci
 entists estimate that half of the insects on this planet haven�t even be
 en discovered yet!\nWe�re surrounded by tiny critters with fascinating l
 ives that perform critical ecosystem functions.  Not only are they feeding
  larger animals\, pollinating flowers\, and recycling organic matter\, but
  there are insects that skate on water\, form complex societies\, mate in 
 mid-air\, and live their entire adult lives without eating!\nInsects are h
 ard to appreciate if you don�t know what you�re looking at.  Come and 
 learn to identify the common insects of Central Oregon.  Then the next tim
 e a little critter lands on you\, instead of swatting it\, you can take a 
 closer look and say\, �Oh look\, a ___________!�  �Wow\, have you ev
 er seen antennae like that?�\nAfter a career working as an entomologist 
 in Virginia\, Bermuda\, and Oregon\, Dan retired to Sunriver.  Now an amat
 eur naturalist\, he enjoys observing nature at all scales\, including the 
 smallest of creatures.\n*ani* *cr*.\nhttps://dpl.libnet.info/event/1160816
