3/8 UPDATE: Tonight’s Potapaug program on Blanding’s Turtle has been cancelled because the Old Lyme Town Hall is currently operating on generator power without functioning lights in any of its meeting spaces.
Potapaug Audubon presents “Blanding’s Turtle” on Thursday, March 8, at 7 p.m. at the Old Lyme Town Hall, 52 Lyme St. with guest speaker, Emilie Wilder of Zoo New England.
This endangered species, named for William Blanding, the early Philadelphia naturalist who first described it, needs help. The hatchlings are being protected and then raised by school children.
Come learn about this unique project and a turtle about which you’ve probably never heard.
