Patterns in Nature with JoAnn Riecke ~ Nature's designs are fascinating as well as adaptive!  Join Master Naturalist Joanne Riecke or take a walk on your own any day in October to look for and learn about some basic design patterns you see in nature and explore the area for examples.  Take pictures or bring paper and a pencil to make drawings to share with others.
