Winter and Wildlife - Ames Public Library, Farwell T. Brown Auditorium

Event Summary

While spring is a time of renewal, summer a time of plenty, and fall a season of transition, winter is a challenging time of hardship and adaptation for Midwestern wildlife. Food and shelter that was seemingly everywhere most of the year is now in short supply as challenging winter weather often endures. This presentation by Ty Smedes will discuss the many challenges faced by wintering wildlife and we will view images demonstrating their adaptability and will to survive. This free program is sponsored by the outdoor Alliance of Story County, Story County Conservation, and the Ames Public Library. Participants to this event are invited to record a story inspired by Iowa's nature through the Common Ground project. A facilitator will be available in a study room from 8:00-8:45 p.m. to record 10 minute stories on a first-come, first-served basis.
