Naturalist and photographer Joy Marzolf will give a one-hour virtual presentation called: "Magical Costa Rica" this evening starting at 7 PM via Zoom.  

For such a tiny country, Costa Rica has amazing biodiversity. Bird life in the rainforest varies widely from colorful hummingbirds, honeycreepers and red-capped manakins to large birds like great curassow and scarlet macaws. Curious troops of capuchin monkeys can be found exploring the trees as they look for food. Night brings a chance to see tiny creatures, like poison dart frogs and red eyed tree frogs, well hidden among the foliage. Join us as we explore the wildlife of Costa Rica’s lowland rainforests.

Our speaker has worked as a naturalist for over 20 years and 13 of those years were at the Broadmoor Sanctuary in Natick.  She presents many programs for both adults and children to include a wide variety of topics such as butterflies, birds and reptiles, as well as wildlife behavior and travel talks about countries around the world, with a focus on their plants and animals.  She also takes great photos during her travels to be included in this talk, which illustrate her topic.

Come and join host Jean Hlady to learn more about this beautiful country, and all it has to offer in nature for your next adventure!  Advance registration is required to receive the Zoom link and sign-up starts 3 weeks beforehand here.  

This program is kindly sponsored by the Friends of the Milton Public Library and is free and open to all.  Please join us!
