Earlier this month, in partnership with Manatee County Natural Resources and Stocking Savvy - Environmental Consulting, we led a Ringling College biodiversity class on a venture through Robinson Preserve. Students learned about the species they saw and discovered more for themselves via cataloguing on iNaturalist. 🌿🐦 We saw juvenile osprey, painted bunting, fiddler crabs, and much more!
Manatee County, Florida Government
Ringling College of Art and Design
Note: We were given specific permission of which natural spaces we could enter and which spaces we could not enter. Students went off trail in the approved spaces to practice spotting and cataloguing species.
