Wednesday, February 19, 1 – 2 p.m., Orcas Senior Center
— from Lena Kassa for Orcas Senior Center —
The Meeting of the Minds series of lectures continues at Orcas Senior Center. This season, in partnership with Friends of Moran, we will continue a series of presentations about our island home.
Newts are some very special amphibians! Join ecologist Christian Oldham from Kwiaht – Center for the Historical Ecology of the Salish Sea for a presentation about native Rough-Skinned Newts. Hands-on live animal interaction will be available. The presentation is free and all are welcome.

I’m so sorry I missed the one on Bats – some of my favorite creatures – as are newts and salamanders. Does anyone know where I can contact the person who did the bats presentation, to see if I can get the notes? Thanks for any help you can give.
Looking forward to learning more about newts. It always feels like such a privilege to see them anymore!
Hi Sadie –
Russel from Kwiaht gave the bats presentation. You can get in touch with him at russel@kwiaht.org – he’s always happy to send along materials!
