Keen bug-hunters can descend on Hollard Gardens, Kaponga, on Sunday, November 27 for a high-tech discovery session using a special app on their smartphones or tablets.
Ecologist Jon Sullivan and other naturalists from NatureWatch NZ will be on hand for two family-friendly Bugs in nature discovery sessions starting at 11am and 1pm, with a quick tutorial before each.
Those wanting to take part should download the iNaturalist app in advance by going to naturewatch.org.nz/pages/mobile-apps-nz. It's available for Apple and Android devices.
There'll be free Wi-Fi at Hollards on the day, but please download the app before you go.
Sunday's bug-hunting sessions have been organised by Puke Ariki as part of its current exhibition called Bugs! Our Backyard Heroes. See www.pukeariki.com for more information.
