This workshop will be led by Jason Muller, Educator and Outreach Coordinator at @slccurb At 3pm, Look closely works on view in "Art and Identity: Highlights from the Collections of the Hudson River Museum and Art Bridges" and share what you see and what you don’t with the HRM’s @kressfdn Interpretive Fellow, Christian Stegall.

Our marsh cam capturing this evening's snow along the waterfront in Yonkers. #snow #firstsnow #yonkers #hudsonriver #fall2018 #novembersnow #weather
After a long wait, the Palisades are finally showing near peak colors. Certainly a welcome sight on this gloomy day. #hudsonriver #yonkers #fallfoliage #fallcolors
Thanks to the volunteers from @regeneron for doing great work along our waterfront today! The group repaired our marsh erosion wall, secured fences, collected trash and driftwood, and pulled invasive mugwort as part of the Day for Doing Good. #regenerond4dg #regeneron #doingwellbydoinggood #volunteering #hudsonriver #yonkers
Always a great time when the @slcgryphons men's basketball team stops by CURB for a visit. The team worked on a park cleanup and driftwood removal from our shoreline, and then collected fish data during seining. #volunteering #sarahlawrence #basketball #curb #yonkers #teamwork

Here's a tiny naked goby hiding out in a shell in one of our tanks. The naked goby, usually measuring under 2 inches in length, is one of the smallest fish you will find in the Hudson River. It is "naked" due to its lack of scales. We typically catch around 15 per year during our 100 or so seining classes. Most are caught in our sheltered marsh, where they hide amongst the leaves and sediment of the marsh floor. #hudsonriver #nakedgoby #fishfacts #marinebiology #fish
With our fall school programs just days from getting started, we spent some time this morning practicing seining with our SLC Intensive Semester in Yonkers interns. They battled a high astronomical tide to catch and release a variety of moon jellies, Atlantic silversides, blue crabs, striped bass, and mummichogs. @slccommunitypartnerships #yonkers #hudsonriver #seining #environment #research #fish #jellies #sarahlawrence
Multiple rounds of thunderstorms this afternoon will clear the way for cooler air this weekend. #weather #rain #thunderstorms #clouds #sun #Yonkers #september #hudsonriver
