Creatures of the Dark: Nocturnal Animals and the Role They Play After Dark
Saturday, March 21
7:30 p.m. (sign-in at 7 p.m.)
Difficulty: Easy-to-moderate
Join us for a guided moonlight walk around Lakeview Park as we explore the secret world of nocturnal plants and animals. Learn how darkness shapes the nighttime food web and why it’s essential for a balanced ecosystem. We’ll also use UV lights to reveal hidden colors and patterns that bring the night to life in a whole new way. After the walk, take home a self-guided fact sheet to continue exploring, including a look at unexpected pollinators—from bats to beetles—that help keep our world blooming after dark.
Meeting location: Lakeview Park, 650 Foxhall Drive, San Marcos, CA 92078
