Bug Bonanza

What insects and small creatures live in the grasses, flowers, and trees of Nantucket? Find out as you adventure with MMA Natural Science Museum staff to collect insects like a scientist and learn about the incredible traits and behaviors of all the creates we catch and release. We will also identify the insects, and then release these spiders, ants, and other insects back to their habitat!
