Note: This program has been moved to Friday, June 3 due to staff Covid exposure.
Horseshoe crabs (which are not crabs at all, actually!) have been around for more than 250 million years, and every spring many of them come to the shores of the Damariscotta River estuary to lay their eggs. Join naturalist Sarah Gladu on a walk to the salt marsh to search for spawning horseshoe crabs and learn all about these fascinating prehistoric creatures.
