The Hidden Life Around Us with Don Scallen

March 24 @ 7:00 pm - 8:00 pm

All around us, some creatures are conducting their lives largely unseen. Who has observed amorous salamanders, piscine stonemasons, or crooning tree crickets?  We are more aware of birds and the larger mammals, but there is a host of animals active underwater or after dark that are seldom noticed.  Others use camouflage to conceal their presence. Come to our March talk to hear Don Scallen share stories and show images about fish, caterpillars and other animals that slip under our radar.

Don is a writer, naturalist, and former president of the Halton North Peel Naturalist Club. He is a regular contributor to an acclaimed regional magazine called In The Hills. https://www.inthehills.ca/author/don-scallen/  and has published two books: Nature Where We Live and Spotted Salamanders and their world”
