5:00 PM – 7:00 PM
The Patuxent Wildlife Research Refuge Film and Speaker Series brings the research and conservation of the refuge to you. Each date will have a film and a speaker with some connection to the practices or research done on the refuge to answer questions.
Each event is a different theme with different speakers and films, making no two events the same.
March 7th Film: “Flyways.” Learn about the birds that come and go with the changing seasons. Meet special guests Jeffrey Spendelow, Ph.D., a migratory bird researcher specializing in Roseate Terns, and Wildlife Biologist Pam Garrettson, a member of the USFWS Migratory Bird management team.
Prior to each film screening, join Chesapeake Conservation and Climate Corps member William O'Boyle for a unique wildlife exhibit tour: meet in our main lobby. The NWVC will remain open past its normal operating hours, and Friends of Patuxent’s Wildlife Images Bookstore & Nature Shop will extend its hours until 5 pm for these events. (Profits from the Friends’ shop support the mission and work of Patuxent Research Refuge and the Eastern Environmental Science Center).
