<i> </i></b>BREWSTER, MA The Cape Cod Museum of Natural History in
Brewster has a new Summer Series called <i>Lunch & Learn. </i>We are
proud to present <i>The Secret Lives of Fireflies</i> with Science
Educator Don Salvatore <b>Monday, August 7, 2017 at 11:30am. <br><br>
</b> Watching fireflies is a special part of warm summer nights in
New England and a memorable experience. We watch, we enjoy, and as kids
we use to catch them in a jar to get an up-close look at them. However,
do we really know what these creatures of the night are saying? Why are
they flashing, are they bugs or beetles, are they male or female?
Fireflies, also known as “lightning bugs” are so much more than a flash
in the night. Join Don Salvatore for this fascinating and enlightening
look into the secret lives of fireflies! <br>
<br>
Don Salvatore grew up in Weymouth, a small coastal town south of Boston.
He spent his professional career as a science educator at the Children’s
Museum in Dartmouth, the Roanoke Valley Science Museum in Virginia, and
for the last 36 years, at the Museum of Science in Boston where he
founded and coordinated the Firefly Watch and citizen science program. He
has taught programs in all the sciences; biology, physics, chemistry,
geology, meteorology and biochemistry. Through them all, he has come to
a deeper understanding of natural history. <br>
