Island Earth Cyrus Sutton’s doc- umentary-style film tells the tale of indigenous scientist Cliff Kapono and his struggle for truth between science and tradition as he enters an industry that many feel is threaten- ing his homeland of Hawaii. This film captures our moment in time, where two separate paths are being forged at once: one that builds upon the past in the name of progress, and the other that rejects the past in the name of progress. The film is appro-
priate for all ages and addresses the question: How are we going to feed the world without destroying the planet we live on? Screening is at 6 pm followed by a Q&A with Cyrus Sutton. Sunday, April 9, 6pm; $8-$9. Bird’s Surf Shed, 1091 W. Morena Boulevard. (BAY PARK)

Women in Science Women have played an important role in the development and dissemination of science. Having made significant contributions to science from the earliest times, they were leaders in building the early foundation of modern programming and unveiled the structure of DNA. Their work inspired environmental movements and led to the discovery of new genes. Inspiring more young women to pursue careers in science starts with simply sharing the stories of these pioneers.

NATURE
Bracken Ferns are rising on the higher mountains of San Diego
County, their bright green, unfold- ing fronds (called “fiddleheads”) pushing up through the russet remains of last year’s growth. By late April or May, fully opened ferns will line the creeks and hollows of the Palomar, Cuyamaca, and Laguna mountains.
Fremont Cottonwood Trees along the San Diego River in Mis- sion Gorge will show off their best iridescent green foliage this month. The Old Mission Dam parking area on Father Junípero Serra Trail, off Mission Gorge Road (west of Santee), is a good place to begin a stroll on trails near the riverbed. Be careful — as April temperatures rise, rattlesnakes will increasingly be out and about.
Warmer Temperatures and less rain coincide with the subtle onset of coastal San Diego’s spring season. By April’s end, the intermit- tent showery periods, Santa Ana winds, cold nights, and crystal- clear, sun-drenched days of winter will likely be distant memories. The nocturnal, low overcast hugging the coast, which may linger until the late morning, will gradually build into “May gray” and “June gloom” — the days-long episodes of perpetual overcast most common during May and June.
Citizen Science: Wildlife Track- ing in the River Park Calling all Citizen Scientists! A fun morning of tracking wildlife in the River Park. Learn how to identify tracks and from coyotes, bobcats, raccoons, deer and other wildlife in the area. Come prepared to hike and search
