Join us for Water Talks as we explore how daily fluid intake and hydration can influence the body’s response to stress. Drawing on recent research, Neil Walsh will examine evidence showing how habitually low water intake is associated with exaggerated cortisol responses to psychosocial stress, even in the absence of thirst. The talk will discuss potential health implications of chronic underhydration and highlight why hydration should be considered a key, modifiable factor in stress resilience and overall health.

Species identification apps, like Merlin or iNaturalist, help nature observers sharpen their identification skills and identify plants, animals, and mushrooms. They are used for personal enjoyment and to support community and citizen science (CCS) projects. Several popular apps include AI-driven image or sound analysis tools that let users snap a photo or record an animal’s calls, and then suggest an identification.
