Vermont Institute of Natural Science (VINS)

Watch science come alive as we delve into the
lives of different kinds of animals. In this program
we will explore similarities and differences
between amphibians, reptiles and birds. Through
engaging experiments we will investigate how
each group is suited to their habitat and how their
adaptations aid in their survival. Throughout the
program you will enjoy up-close encounters with a
live frog, snake and bird.
www.vinsweb.org
This program introduces audiences to local and
tropical bats. Via amazing slides, the audience
moves beyond old stereotypes of bats, to
understand their vital role, helping to control
pesky insects, pollinating night blooming flower,
and dispersing seeds. Audiences learn about
vampire bats, our smallest bat and our large fruit
bats, about bat migration and hibernation, and we
will look at the white nose syndrome, the most
recent threat to bats such as our Little Brown bat.
A wonderful bat tee shirt craft follows the slide
show. Bring your own tee shirt for the craft or $4
if you would like to purchase one at the program.
Saturday, July 19th, meet at 9:45 am in Power’s
Park (road closes at 9:30). All ages welcome,
