Submitted Photo Microscopic Nature is the project for the 8 to 12-year-olds and their adults who are Natural Investigators at Audubon Community Nature Center on Saturday morning, March 25.

The Audubon Community Nature Center will hold its next Natural Investigators session at 10 a.m. Saturday with a focus on microscopic nature.

The program is designed for children between the ages of 8 and 12.

Some animals hide underground or are camouflaged. Some plants live only below the surface of the water. Many things are just too small to see with the eyes alone.

Join an Audubon educator and get a glimpse of this tiny hidden world. Learn how microscopes allow us to see the miniscule side of nature, as the group explores the soil and water around Audubon.

The program will include an outdoor portion as those attending collect samples to view under microscopes, as well as an indoor portion where the group will use microscopes to look for the tiny organisms they collected.

Natural Investigators takes place in rain, snow or shine, so dress for the weather. The fee is $12 for adults, $9 for Nature Center members and children ages 8 to 12. Enrollment is limited to 12 children, 24 participants total.

Make paid reservations by Thursday, March 23, by calling 716-569-2345 during business hours or by going to AudubonCNC.org and clicking through “Programs and Events.” Natural Investigators is presented on the fourth Saturday of every month, 10 to 11:30 a.m.
