After the meeting, at 3:15 PM, we will welcome Kristi Odom to our Audubon Afternoon. Kristi’s article, “Watching over at-risk butterflies, bugs” appeared in the Washington Post on May 19. It follows Jim Waggener and his fellow citizen scientists as they document environmental changes through their 25 years of surveys. During her Audubon Afternoon presentation, Kristi will talk about her photography throughout the world and how her perspective changed after documenting the wildlife survey team.
Bears, Kristi Odom
