SUMMARY:Spiders of Kentucky: A Floracliff Field Studies Workshop
DESCRIPTION:Instructor: Dr. James Wagner\, Transylvania University \nHiking Level: Moderate \nSpiders are one of the most diverse groups of terrestrial invertebrates yet most people only seem to know of black widows\, brown recluses\, and wolf spiders. This workshop is designed to introduce you to the great diversity in spider forms and behaviors and train you to identify some of the common families of spiders. We will utilize a variety of collecting methods to create a specimen collection for the Floracliff preserve and we will identify our captures to the lowest taxonomic level possible. Since many spiders are nocturnal\, will visit Trail’s End at night to observe and document the spiders in the preserve.  \nSchedule:\n	Saturday\, October 5th: 3 pm – 9 pm\n	Sunday\, October 6th: 11 am – 4 pm \nJames Wagner is a Professor of Biology at Transylvania University. He has been studying the behavioral ecology of insects and spiders for the last 25 years. His research has been highlighted on a Discover Magazine segment for The Discovery Channel and on an episode of Weird\, True and Freaky on Animal Planet. In 2001\, he was named Kentucky Professor of the Year by the Carnegie Foundation for the Advancement of Teaching and the Council for Advancement and Support of Education. \nWorkshop Cancellation/Refund Policy: To cancel your registration and request a refund\, please email info@floracliff.org at least 3 weeks before the event.

SUMMARY:Shrubs and Understory Trees of Central and Eastern Kentucky
DESCRIPTION:Instructor: Rob Paratley\, University of Kentucky \nHiking Level: Moderate to Difficult \nApart from the major trees in our forests\, smaller woody plants add greatly to the diversity of our ecosystems.  We can use the same skills and field characters that are used to identify the oaks\, maples\, and other major trees\, and apply them to learning the many understory woody plants that add to the complexity of our native vegetation.  Understory shrubs and small trees can also help us understand a site’s soil characteristics and disturbance history. This workshop will include a morning hike at Floracliff and an afternoon hike in the Daniel Boone National Forest.  \nWorkshop Cancellation/Refund Policy: To cancel your registration and request a refund\, please email info@floracliff.org at least 2 weeks before the event.
