Bald Eagles with Ginny Apple
December 16 @ 1:00 pm - 2:30 pm
On Saturday, December 16th at 1 pm Master Wildlife Conservationist Ginny Apple will present a talk on bald eagles at the David M. Hunt Library. Bald eagles were once so endangered that many considered whether to replace them as America’s national symbol. The ongoing story of their recovery as a species and CT’s healthy eagle population is a comeback story worth hearing. Join Ginny Apple, a Master Wildlife Conservationist with the State Department of Energy and Environmental Protection, for a talk about these magnificent birds of prey that so fascinate onlookers and their valuable contributions to our ecosystem. Ginny Apple will discuss and give a slide show presentation on the bald eagle and its resurging population in Connecticut.
