Beyond Your Senses

November 6 2021 from 1:00 pm 3:00 pm

$20 member / $35 nonmember (per person)
Instructor: Kelsey Low
Ages 12 and up

There’s a whole world beyond the reach of human senses: ultraviolet, infrared, ultrasound… Discover the hidden signals that are undetectable to us, but part of everyday life for non-human animals. In this hands-on class we’ll use blacklights to discover how “dull” birds really shine, special microphones to eavesdrop on bats, and even test strips to determine if any of us have a super-human sense of taste!

Please dress for the weather and wear close-toed shoes.

The Woodway Entrance will be closed to the public March 28-31 for the Texas Children's Houston Open. Please use the 610 Entrance during this time.The Nature Center building will be closed Sunday, March 31 for Easter. The trails, outdoor restrooms, and Nature Playscape will remain open.
