Plants & Pollinators Talk Friday October 14 in Cape May

SJ Butterflyers:

Like Pat Sutton (see below), I heard Jennifer Bulava (one of our most active contributor/observers) give this superb presentation last April at the Southeast Chapter of the Native Plant Society of NJ.

You will learn lots about butterflies (and other pollinators), if you can make it. Go if you can!

Hi Gang,
I heard Jennifer Bulava speak at the Native Plant Society of NJ’s Southeast Chapter meeting in Atlantic County in early April and learned so much!  Tomorrow night she will be presenting here in Cape May County at the Cape May County Library in Cape May Court House.  Details follow:
Secret World of Plants and Pollinators
by Jennifer Bulava
Friday, October 14, 2016
6:00-7:00 p.m.
WHERE: Cape May County Library
in dowstairs Storytime Room
30 West Mechanic Street
Cape May Court House, NJ 08210

For additional information call the library at 609-463-6386
or visit the library’s online Calendar
There’s no fee, just come!

Jennifer Bulava’s presentation will focus on the incredible ways in which plants communicate with animals. Flowers are not pretty colors and pleasant smells for us – it’s all about the pollinators. Discover amazing strategies of plants, the colors that pollinators see, and ways in which both plants and animals can help or deceive each other. Did you know that a bee’s eye view is extremely different from what we see, and from what a bird sees? Participants will find that taking a much closer look at flowers can open up an entire hidden world that is more complex and fascinating than one ever imagined

Jennifer Bulava is a Park Naturalist for the Burlington County Park System. Jennifer is responsible for planning and conducting nature programs and all other aspects of environmental education for the public within the County Parks System. She holds a Bachelor of Science degree in Natural Resource Management with a specialization in Conservation and Ecology from Cook College, Rutgers University.

I’m planning to attend.  See you there?
Pat
