Ant Farm

As a part of the "Catch the Reading Bug" Summer Reading Program, I bought an AntWorks farm from ThinkGeek.com. The harvester ants are living in a nutritious gel developed by NASA for experiments in space. I unplug the LEDs while the Library is closed, so the ants gets some "down time."

Emily Davis and White-Nose Syndrome

Emily Davis, renowned spelunker and bat expert, will speak at the Schoharie Library on Thursday June 19th @ 7 pm. Her topic will be white-nose syndrome in bats, which is the apparent cause for many overwintering deaths in caves in New York, Massachusetts, Vermont and Connecticut.
