This special event will also celebrate the tenth anniversary of People for Puget Sound, and is a feature of the opening month of the Dungeness River Audubon Center's new interpretive building.
Bats are an often misunderstood and greatly underappreciated group of animals.
In fact, some bat species are even at risk for extinction. Jeff Taylor will be starting out with a 30 minute slide presentation discussing the natural history of bats and some of the effects of human development on bat ecology in the Northwest. Then, we will go outside for a question and answer section, where you can have a chance to find out whether all of the myths and rumors you have heard about bats are true. Jeff Taylor did his Master's research on bats in the Cascades and has been studying bats for over 6 years. The Sunday Peninsula Daily News erroneously posted the River Talk time as 10am.
