SUMMARY:Freshwater invertebrate identification workshop
DESCRIPTION:Join us in UCD this Biodiversity Week for a series of beginner-level species identification workshops with UCD biodiversity experts. \nThese hands-on sessions will teach you how to spot and identify plants\, freshwater invertebrates\, solitary bees\, birds\, mammals and earthworms. \nIn the freshwater invertebrate workshop\, participants will learn to recognise representative examples of different invertebrate groups (insects\, crustaceans\, snails\, worms and leeches) and learn about using invertebrates as indicators of stream water quality. With Dr Marcin Penk.

SUMMARY:Solitary bee identification workshop
DESCRIPTION:Join us in UCD this Biodiversity Week for a series of beginner-level species identification workshops with UCD biodiversity experts. \nThese hands-on sessions will teach you how to spot and identify plants\, freshwater invertebrates\, solitary bees\, birds\, mammals and earthworms. \nIn the solitary bees workshop\, participants will be introduced to Irish bee species\, with a particular focus on the much neglected solitary bees. Participants will learn basics of identifying these species\, first under the microscope in the lab then in the field. With Dr Julia Jones and Dr Darren O’Connell.

SUMMARY:Birds and mammals identification workshop
DESCRIPTION:Join us in UCD this Biodiversity Week for a series of beginner-level species identification workshops with UCD biodiversity experts. \nThese hands-on sessions will teach you how to spot and identify plants\, freshwater invertebrates\, solitary bees\, birds\, mammals and earthworms. \nWhich birds and mammals are you likely to encounter in UCD\, what are their habitats and how can you identify them? This workshop will put your observation skills to the test and we’ll also chat about how to become a citizen scientist using passive monitoring technology. With Dr Adam Kane.
