Creatures of the Night: Bugs of the Underworld
As night falls, the places we spend time outdoors can feel like a very different place. Familiar trails melt into shadows, and the daytime soundscape is replaced with things that go bump in the night as nocturnal creatures come out to play. Join the Elkhart County Parks as we lift night’s veil to reveal the hidden lives of these creatures of the night, from spiders weaving webs to bats on the wing.
Discover some of natureβs gnarliest macroinvertebrates lurking just beneath the surface of our creeks and ponds. Pull on your muck boots and grab a headlamp as we step into the shallows and take a closer look at the alien world of aquatic insects. Decide for yourself which are dragons and which are damsels.
This hike is weather-dependent. Check the event page for updates before heading out.
