SUMMARY:Oyster Reef Ball Construction
DESCRIPTION:Join us at the Tampa Bay Watch Marine Education Center\, 3000 Pinellas Bayway South in Tierra Verde to help build oyster reef balls! \nThis task involves pouring marine-friendly concrete into a fiberglass mold to create oyster reef balls\, then taking apart the molds when dry.

SUMMARY:500 Million Years at Brooker Creek Preserve
DESCRIPTION:Have you ever looked at an alligator or a wood stork and thought “man\, they look like living dinosaurs!”? Have you ever seen fossils and thought they looked similar to creatures still around today? And what about Florida specifically – when did all of the animals and plants we see here actually get here? This webinar will take a 500 million year journey through evolutionary history\, looking at the origins of many of the creatures that call Brooker Creek home! We will find out that dragonflies haven’t changed much since before the dinosaurs\, but that just 15\,000 years ago (the blink of an eye in geologic time) Florida was full of enormous mastodons and mammoths\, saber-toothed cats and giant ground sloths! \nThis whirlwind tour of natural history is geared towards adults and interested youth are welcome to join. \nPresented by Brian Magnier. Sponsored by the Friends of Brooker Creek Preserve. \n>>> WEBINAR REGISTRATION <<<
