SUMMARY:Conservancy Days: Moths of the Conservancy
DESCRIPTION:Join Angus Mossman to share some awe and wonder at what might be happening just outside your window as darkness sets in. In addition to seeing some jaw-dropping creatures\, this presentation will touch on the ecology and natural history of a variety of local moths and other nocturnal insects\, and how they fit into the landscape of southern Wisconsin. \nAngus Mossman grew up in Sauk Co. exploring the world alongside biologist parents Mike Mossman and Lisa Hartman. A few years travelling and studying around the world brought him back to the special place that is southern Wisconsin. By day\, you can find Angus exploring the world with kids at Tower Rock Elementary School\, and by night wandering around some prairie or swamp with a flashlight in hand. \nRegistration required—sign up at middleton.recdesk.com. \nConservancy Days occur at 6pm on the third Thursday of the month at the Middleton Public Library\, 7425 Hubbard Ave.

SUMMARY:Conservancy Day: Beavers - Architects of Healthy Streams
DESCRIPTION:Join us for an engaging and eye-opening talk with conservation expert Bob Boucher as we explore the powerful role of beavers – Wisconsin’s extraordinary ecosystem engineers! As a keystone species\, beavers transform landscapes through their dams and canals\, creating dynamic wetlands that stabilize waterways\, reduce flooding\, and reconnect rivers to their floodplains. These wetlands also filter and clean water\, recharge groundwater\, and support steady stream flows. The habitats they create become biodiversity hotspots\, sustaining a remarkable variety of plants and wildlife – comparable in richness to coral reefs and tropical rainforests. Come learn how these remarkable mammals help restore and sustain Wisconsin’s natural ecosystems! \n\nRegistration is not required\, but preferred.\n \n\nNature lovers\, conservation enthusiasts\, and curious minds\, this one’s for you! We look forward to seeing you there!
