SIB has resumed our “Virtual Movie Matinee” series for the summer. The best part is you don’t even have to be on Seabrook Island to join! This month’s movie may not be about birds but caterpillars are an important part of a bird’s world. After watching this incredible film, you will have a new perspective on the caterpillar and their life cycle, diversity, and role on our planet!
The Extraordinary Caterpillar:
Over 98% of the living world on Earth is smaller than a bee. Yet humans view the planet as a world centered around themselves. Landscapes are deconstructed to suit human needs, often with little regard for the natural systems that sustain the food web. The Extraordinary Caterpillar follows the scientists and community activists with this peek into the dazzling world of nature’s tiniest superheroes.
To reveal the inner workings of our planet’s foundational food web, naturalist Sam Jaffe from The Caterpillar Lab uses dazzling macro-videography to magnify tiny, fantastical, anime-like creatures – caterpillars! Sam’s images reveal a weird and wonderful world beyond imagination of behavior, form, and function that will inspire people to take a second look at the hidden world happening in their own yard.
Once you register, we will send you a link the day prior to the event to allow you to access our Zoom live video. We will open each event with introductions and a little social time, watch the show together and finish with a short discussion to get your feedback and answer questions.
Register and then plan to get comfy in your favorite chair with snacks and beverages of your choice to enjoy our gathering!
