  11. #WestbrookME - Marsh and Stream Explorers Field Training in Westbrook

    April 25 from 9:30 am-12 pm

    Location: #MillBrookPreserve, Presumpscot Regional Land Trust, Westbrook

    Free, registration required.

    "Curious about what critters live in your local streams and freshwater marshes? Come join #MaineAudubon and #MaineDEP for a fun morning of catching and identifying #macroinvertebrates at Mill Brook Preserve! Get hands-on training and learn how you can contribute to an important community science project that acts as a screening tool for Maine’s Department of Environmental Protection (DEP) water quality assessments. Be prepared to wade into shallow water as you net and handle macroinvertebrates!

    "Marsh and Stream Explorers is a water quality monitoring project that trains volunteers to survey streams and freshwater marshes for large #AquaticInsects (macroinvertebrates) which are sensitive to environmental stressors and can be indicators of #wetland health. After this training session, you’ll have the tools to choose and survey your own stream or freshwater marsh and contribute invaluable data to Maine’s water quality monitoring efforts. If you’re interested in getting outdoors, learning something new, and protecting your local #watershed, this community science project is for you!

    "We will meet at the parking area for the Northern Trailhead and go on a short walk from there. Wear clothes and shoes you’re comfortable walking in and potentially getting wet, waders or muckboots are encouraged and some may be provided."

  16. #Webinar - #Marsh and #Stream Explorers: A Treasure Hunt to Find Healthy Freshwater #Habitats in #Maine

    Apr 22 2026
    7:00 pm - 8:00 pm

    "Curious about what critters live in your local streams and freshwater marshes? Come learn about Maine Marsh and Stream Explorers, a collaborative #CommunityScience project between #MaineAudubon and the Maine Department of Environmental Protection (#MEDEP). This program trains volunteers to survey for #macroinvertebrates, or large #AquaticInsects, in streams and freshwater #marshes statewide. With many macroinvertebrates sensitive to temperature, #pollutants, and other environmental stressors, their presence or absence serve as an important indicator of overall wetland health. This data then becomes an invaluable screening tool for #MaineDEP to prioritize where more-indepth water quality assessments should be conducted.

    "In this webinar you’ll learn about what the Marsh and Stream Explorers project has accomplished and its impact on water quality monitoring statewide. We’ll look at our overall results, share our successes, and talk about future goals of the project. If you’re interested in getting outdoors, learning something new, and protecting your local watershed, this community science project is for you! Come learn more about how you can get involved. In-person field training for survey techniques to follow."

    Wednesday, April 29, 2026, 10:30am – 12:30pm

    Learn how to easily turn your nature observations into valuable research data.

    Reservations Required!

    "Are you in tune with nature and your wild neighbors? Do you notice when the red maple flowers burst in the spring, when monarch caterpillars begin to munch on milkweed in late summer, or when the first leaves drop in autumn?

    Join us at our #SignsOfTheSeasons Community Science Workshop and learn how to turn your nature observations into valuable data used by scientists (nationally and globally) to document seasonal and long-term change.

    Signs of the Seasons, is a #MaineSeaGrant community science program that trains volunteers to observe and record #phenology (seasonal changes) in #plants and #animals using #NaturesNotebook. Participants will learn about the why and how-to of collecting phenology data, practice making observations, and leave with the tools and knowledge to document changes in their own backyard or community.

    This workshop will include a presentation as well as hands-on learning with plant specimens. While the majority of this in-person workshop will take place inside, please come prepared to spend some time outside making observations. "

    The date of this program has changed to 4/29. Please register at the event listing on Wed April 29th. Thank you!"

    This workshop will include a presentation as well as hands-on learning with plant specimens. While the majority of this in-person workshop will take place inside, please come prepared to spend some time outside making observations. "

    The date of this program has changed to 4/29. Please register at the event listing on Wed April 29th. Thank you!"
