SUMMARY:Moth Party ~ Lightsheeting Event
DESCRIPTION:Date: April 24\, 2026 \nTime: 9pm – 11pm \nRSVP HERE \nYou’re invited to the Moth Party! What is a moth party? Well\, if you shine a bright light at a white sheet… this is heaven for moths and other insects. This strategy makes it easier for us to photograph creatures that are usually fluttering about\, making for blurry pictures. \nOur Goal: \nAttract and photograph moths and other insect species to record for the Shasta County City Nature Challenge. \nWhat is the City Nature Challenge? \nEach year\, various counties and cities participate in recording observations of wildlife in the iNaturalist app in order to document biodiversity in specific areas. This is a world-wide project that encourages the average person to look at nature around them and report back on what they see. Do you need to be a scientist or an expert to take part in this Challenge? Absolutely not! All you need is a phone\, the iNaturalist app\, and curiosity. \nWhy a Moth Party? \nWhen you think of “Pollinators” you probably picture colorful butterflies or buzzing bees. But did you know that on a global scale\, there are twice as many species of pollinating moths as there are bees\, and six times as many pollinating moth species as butterflies? While most creatures are asleep\, moths work the night-shift\, which is why they are often overlooked. If this didn’t convince you\, they are also very cute and fuzzy and nice to look at!  \nPlease RSVP for location and event details \n*Note: this event will be held in a more remote location than the light-polluted city center in order to encourage a more successful turnout (of insects) \nFor any questions\, contact ren@ecoshasta.org \n

SUMMARY:Salmon Monitoring on Clear Creek
DESCRIPTION:Hosted by Horsetown-Clear Creek Preserve. \nJoin Horsetown-Clear Creek Preserve alongside Fish Biologists from the US. Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS) to learn more about their juvenile salmon conservation and monitoring projects in our area. This is a family friendly event where you can view USFWS rotary screw trap operations on Clear Creek\, a project that helps track and monitor populations of our local Chinook Salmon. We’ll start at the China Garden Trailhead. USFWS will then lead us down to Clear Creek where we will be able to learn about and observe USFWS rotary screw trap and juvenile fish handling operations\, conservation and monitoring of Chinook Salmon and steelhead trout\, as well as restoration and management efforts happening within the watershed. \nThis hike meets at the China Garden Trailhead\, (the first BLM trailhead on Clear Creek Road from highway 273).

This is Shasta County’s second year participating and is co-organized by Point Blue Conservation Science\, Western Shasta Resource Conservation District\, and Shasta Environmental Alliance. \nWhy: \nParticipating in CNC events provides valuable data that helps scientists and communities better understand and protect nature globally. Plus\, it is a fun activity that provides the opportunity for community connection and learning about local biodiversity. \nHow: \nWe will be conducting an iNaturalist bioblitz\, a community science activity in which participants document as many species as possible within a specified location and time frame. Observations are made and submitted by using the user-friendly app and platform iNaturalist. \nWho: \nAnyone! All that is needed is a mobile phone with the iNaturalist app downloaded onto it.  \nTo Participate: \n\n       Sign up HERE\n       Download iNaturalist onto your mobile phone and create an account.\n       Familiarize yourself with how iNaturalist works. Check out this page for tutorials.\n       Bring your hiking essentials including water\, sun/rain protection\, and a snack.\n\nIf you cannot attend this event\, you can still contribute to the project by submitting iNaturalist observations within Shasta County during April 24-27\, 2026.
