Presentation about the whys and wheres of Fall Colors

The Colors of Fall by Will Richardson at SLT Library

Event Date: 
October 19, 2016 - 6:00pm

Fall is a time of transitional beauty in the Sierra Nevada - from fish to foliage, winter coats, and lower sun angles, the landscape takes on new colors and appearances. Explore the nature of these transitions with Conservation Biologist Will Richardson from TINS. Learn why so much of the landscape changes color, the mechanisms behind those changes (for example, how and why leaves change color), and a bit about the nature of color and visual perception. Dr. Richardson will of course also show you great places to observe these colors in the Tahoe region.
