Michael R. Jeffords and Susan L. Post have circled the globe--and explored their neighborhood--collecting images of the natural world. In this talk they will share wildlife photos and stories from their new book, Curious Encounters with the Natural World: From Grumpy Spiders to Hidden Tigers, which is now available from U of I Press.
From the "necking" battles of mate-hungry giraffes to the breathtaking beauty of millions of monarch butterflies at rest, Jeffords and Post share stunning photographs and their own insights, taking the audience on a tour of the diverse life inhabiting our planet.
The presentation will be followed by a reception & book-signing, featuring light refreshments.
