Distance : 2.5 km
Time : 14:30 – 18:00 (starting time varies according to season)

There are many kinds of plants along the way, including winter cherry, walnut, Yunnan poplar, palm, acacia, white buttercup, nettle, ramie, purple stem polygonum, mugwort, rhododendron, sage, tea tree, nine-section grass, etc., as well as various seasonal vegetables in the fields.

I will explain the stories behind these plants as we walk. Each plant has its own history, origin and use. Some are native plants, and some are introduced. This pleasant and easy hike will give you a good understanding of the plant life and ecology on the slopes of Cangshan Mountain.

During the insect active season, we will also catch and closely observe the insects that the children are interested in along the way.

In addition, I also have a nature observation group WeChat group, which is specially prepared for enthusiasts. After the event, you can continue to learn and see what plants, insects, and birds people around the world observe in different seasons. There are also experts and picture book authors in the group. We exchange knowledge and grow together.

  • Potato Beetle
  • Cross-ribbon golden bird (woven ribbon)
  • Oriental Pieris
  • Large-spotted star moth caterpillar

感谢菲比,不仅活动中倾囊相授,而且这么晚了还一直在复盘,不仅让大人小孩都学到了专业的知识,更让孩子们看到了热爱的力量。

也要感谢悠悠,一路上一直在科普,还把我们带到了大理大学,指引我们吃到了超爱的烧烤,波波更是孩子们一路上的开心果。

完美的tour,很感恩很幸运,祝大家诸事顺遂。

小朋友对昆虫很迷恋,我们安排了半天的寻昆虫时间,在领队菲比的带领下,她像小小观察家一样,在大自然里探索昆虫的世界,领队专业且细致,不仅是一部行走的百科全书,也是一名英日法文自由译者,活动结束后还送了我们她译的书,此行堪称完美且收获满满。
