Partnership firefly data collection with Xerces Society continues at Dwelly Farm Conservation Area!
Ever wonder whether fireflies are among the many species that the North County Land Trust protects? Curious about how differences in flash patterns can be used to identify firefly species? Join Xerces Society firefly conservation biologist Richard Joyce for a firefly field night at Dwelly Farm Conservation Area. In order to create a firefly sanctuary at Dwelly Farm, we are documenting the property’s firefly species and assessing its habitats.
Volunteers will assist with a firefly survey, learning how to collect data for the Xerces Society’s Firefly Atlas community science project. The firefly field night will take place between sunset (8:00 PM) and about 10:30 PM. Volunteers should come prepared for walking in low-light conditions on uneven terrain.
