Get ready for firefly season with Greg Pask. As a professor in the department of biology at Middlebury College, one of the insects Greg studies is the Winter Firefly, a Vermont native sometimes found enjoying maple sap buckets in March and April. Unlike most of the fireflies we know from their flashy performances during summer evenings, the Winter Firefly does not produce light as an adult. Greg and student researchers are learning more about how the Winter Firefly and other unlighted fireflies use smell to find each other. Join us Thursday May 11th to learn more about this evolutionary journey and the native insects of Vermont.
Welcome to the Middlebury Science Cafe! Join us to chat about how science intersects with our daily lives in Vermont. Doors will open at 5:00 so there is time to grab a delicious coffee or tea from Royal Oak. The talk starts at 5:30 pm. We are pleased to partner with Middlebury College for this program.
