Land Bank hosting intertidal walk at Deadman Bay Preserve

Posted July 8, 2022 at 1:39 pm by

The San Juan County Conservation Land Bank shares news about a public event taking place next Saturday, July 16, from 10:30 a.m. to 12:30 p.m.

There’s more to the west side of San Juan Island than orcas. Dr. Erika Iyengar of Muhlenberg College, and long-time researcher at Friday Harbor Laboratories, returns to lead an exploration of the intertidal zone at the Land Bank’s Deadman Bay Preserve.

Spend the morning among an amazing diversity of spineless animals (invertebrates) and learn how they feed, reproduce, and interact with each other. Wear some old sneakers or come prepared to get wet up to your knees. If you have a plastic magnifying glass, bring it. Kids are welcome with adult supervision.

Meet and park at the Lime Kiln Point State Park main lot – Discover Pass or parking fee required. Participants will walk to the preserve.

For more information, contact Tanja Williamson at 360-378-4402 or [email protected].
