Mississippi Valley Field Naturalists Nature Talk
The Mississippi Valley Field Naturalists will begin its new program year with an in-person presentation by Dr. Shane Gero, speaking on the subject of whales. Meetings are held at the Almonte United Church at 106 Elgin Street in Almonte. Meetings begin at 7 pm, with doors open and refreshments available starting at 6:30 pm.
Shane will join us to share stories from thousands of hours he has spent in the company of sperm whales. Shane is a Canadian whale biologist and founder of The Dominica Sperm Whale Project, Scientist-in-Residence at Ottawa’s Carleton University, and a National Geographic Explorer. His science appears in numerous magazines, books, and television; and most recently was the basis for the Emmy Award winning series, Secrets of the Whales.
