The Wildlife Speaker Series is bringing bats into the spotlight, to help demystify these creatures of the night! We invite Ottawa residents to spend the evening with staff learning about the various types of bats that share our city, what they do in the winter, and the threats that they face. Did you know that several of our local bats are nationally and provincially endangered, and others may soon be added to the list of species at risk? Now that’s spooky! We hope you’ll join us online… same bat-time, same bat-channel!
The Wildlife Speaker Series web page also provides background information on the series in general and on past events. Links to the City’s YouTube channel are provided with the information for each of the previous online events, which were recorded and remain available for residents to view (Tick Talk, Happy Trails, Wild Wild Waste, Windows of Opportunity, Discovering Nature, and Living with Coyotes).
