| As the sun sets on the prairie, the sights and sounds grow in the glo. When prairies flourish, wildlife returns and people thrive - cleaner air, chatty nights, and the simple, restorative joy of being in nature. Join our passionate team for a relaxed stroll through Shelton L. Cook meadow as the sun sets. We’ll look for emerging native plants, enjoy perfect golden-hour light for pictures (cell phone or fancy camera), and settle in to listen for the Prairie Mole Cricket’s steady, rhythmic call. The Prairie Mole Cricket is a species of conservation concern in Missouri that calls around dusk at Cook Meadow. This program blends plant ID, soundscape listening, and seasonal photography - perfect for beginners, photographers, nature lovers, dreamers, and doers. What to bring (optional): Layers and sturdy shoes Small red-light flashlight or headlamp (use only before/after listening) Paper and pencil for notes Phone or recorder to capture calls (optional) Camera for golden-hour photos Binoculars for dusk birding We will meet at Golden City High School parking lot for a caravan to Shelton Cook Meadow. Please use a working email address as this will be how we contact you if anything changes and/or we update the waiting list. |
