The Arboretum through the Lens of a Camera

March 18

The Linnaeus Arboretum is both a public arboretum and a haven for wildlife. While the trees and flowers are what most visitors notice, there are all kinds of creatures, big and small, that call the arboretum their home. Arboretum Naturalist Bob Dunlap has photographed many forms of wildlife residing in the arboretum in addition to the trees and flowers that grace the college's gardens. Bob will present a slideshow of his arboretum photos from the past two years and discuss the life histories of his subjects.
