The Placerita Canyon Nature Center Associates and Los Angeles County Department of Parks and Recreation will present a Community Nature Education Series lecture on tarantulas on Sunday, Jan. 15 at 2 p.m.
The presentation will be conducted by Olivia Miseroy, a former Placerita Canyon Nature Center employee who now oversees Los Angeles County’s Wildlife and Wildflower Sanctuaries.
As the department’s “bug lady” Miseroy presents programs educating the public on invertebrates and their importance to the ecosystem.
Tarantulas are a unique family of spiders know for their large size and hairy appearance. The scary looking spiders are shy, nocturnal creatures that can be found in all sizes and colors. Tarantulas are found throughout the world in a variety of habitats including the Santa Clarita Valley.
Guests are invited to learn more about tarantulas and meet some live specimens.
The program is free and fun for the entire family.
