The Last Old Growth Animal in Indiana Presentation

Is it possible that an animal specially adapted to old-growth forests is still present? This presentation will make the case that such an animal still exists in Indiana, and the story will include Native Americans, fire, passenger pigeons, bison, and more. Bring your binoculars and join us for an opportunity to go on a bird walk lead by Jeremy Ross to discover local birds and why native plants and varied habitat are so important for them. Feel free to join the bird walk while in progress.

Here is the schedule, taking place on April 10th, 2025:

5:15pm ET Guided Bird Walk (optional)

6:30pm ET Light Refreshments / Meet & Greet
