celebrating the vital role insects play in our ecosystems. Organized by the Royal Entomological Society, this annual event encourages people of all ages to learn more about insects through activities like bug hunts, workshops, and art competitions.
On Fishers Island, insects are essential to our local environment. Pollinators like bees and butterflies support native plant life, while beetles and ants contribute to soil health. Observing and understanding these small creatures helps us appreciate the complexity and resilience of our island’s ecosystems.
