SUMMARY:Bats: Silence of the Night
DESCRIPTION:Bats: Silence of the Night: Friday\, August 15\, 7:30-9pm \nBats fly seemingly silent through the night sky. The science of bioacoustics has taught us otherwise.

Through the combined power of science and technology\, humans have learned to identify bat species by their ultrasonic calls. \nJoin Christa Trushinsky from the Wisconsin Bat Program to learn more about bioacoustics monitoring and how it is being used in the conservation efforts of Wisconsin’s bat population. After a short presentation we will hit the trails\, so please bring bug spray.  Ages 10+ for this event. \nNo registration is required.  Please meet at the Horicon Marsh Education and Visitor Center located at N7725 Highway 28\, Horicon\, WI.  For additional information please contact Liz Herzmann at 920-210-9054 or elizabeth.herzmann@wisconsin.gov.

SUMMARY:Native American Ethnobotany in Basketry\, Birch-quillwork\, & Fibers
DESCRIPTION:Join us Wednesday September 17\, at 7pm for our Rock River Archeology Society Meeting. All programs are free and open to the public.  The meeting is open to the public and is held at the Horicon Marsh Education and Visitor Center located at N7725 Highway 28\, Horicon\, WI. \n\nIntroducing upcoming presenter Lee Olsen who will be presenting on Native American Ethnobotany in basketry\, birch-quillwork\, & fibers.\n\n\nLee will be brining examples of baskets & porcupine quillwork of Upper Great Lakes Tribes (Ojibwa\, Ottawa\, Potawatomi\, Mohawk-Oneida\, Dakota\, & Ho-Chunk). Lee will demonstrate the different styles & uses of ash baskets & quill boxes\, and the wonderful plant materials that are used. He will demonstrate the intricate preparations and designs that add to the beauty of these artistic creations.\n\n\nLee Olsen taught Great Lakes Indian Ethnobotany at UW-Milwaukee since 1977. His Anthropology MS degree in archaeology emphasized Paleoethnobotany (early agriculture and plant use in Wisconsin). Lee is presently compiling the complete Ethnobotanies (EB) of twelve tribes of our area. His specialty is interviewing native elders to explore meanings of plant names. \nLee has collected Native American baskets of our area for 40 years. His collections comprise about 500 artifacts of Black Ash\, Ash with Sweetgrass\, coiled Sweetgrass\, and Birchbark with Spruce root. The collection also includes 100s of porcupine quillwork boxes on birchbark. Most baskets are from Ottawa\, Ojibwa\, and Ho-Chunk artisans. Lee has also made each type & has worked with natural dyes & fibers.

SUMMARY:A Bird Who Sat in Fire
DESCRIPTION:A Bird Who Sat in Fire: Thursday\, September 18\, 6:30pm. \nJoin The Horicon Marsh Bird Club on Thursday\, September 18th\, 2025 at 6:30pm at the Horicon Marsh Education and Visitor Center for a program featuring Blake Richard of the United States Fish & Wildlife Service (USFWS). The meeting is open to the public and is held at the Horicon Marsh Education and Visitor Center located at N7725 Highway 28\, Horicon\, WI. \nMr. Richard will present his experiences as a project volunteer with USFWS in Utqiagvik\, Alaska. His professional work has focused on the conservation of endangered Steller’s and Spectacled Eider ducks\, while his time in Alaska provided unique opportunities for observing rare birds\, encountering polar bears under the midnight sun\, experiencing snowfall in July\, and participating in local cultural events such as nalukataq. The Inupiaq name for Steller’s Eider\, Igniqauqtuq\, means “the bird who sat in fire.” \nOriginating from Wisconsin and raised near the Ruffed Grouse Capital\, Mr. Richard developed a strong connection to wildlife from a young age. Summers spent on the Rock River and autumns hunting in Spooner\, WI played an influential role in his appreciation for natural resources. Before joining the Washington Department of Fish & Wildlife\, he attended Northland College and gained valuable experience working in Alaska with Ducks Unlimited\, the Alaska Department of Fish & Game\, and USFWS. His passion for avian species\, particularly waterfowl\, and dedication to conservation continue to grow\, complemented by interests in photography and writing. \nThis meeting will be available in person and on Zoom. If you would like to attend on Zoom\, you will need to register first at: https://us02web.zoom.us/…/register/oOL5pQSaSy2LwIpkyAi4yg
