Jan 22 Thursday
Speaker: Dr. Larry Leamy
Dr. Leamy will explain the origin and classification of the three groups of amphibians. Participants will also learn the characteristics and adaptations of frogs and be introduced to the nine frog and four toad species found in the Carolina Piedmont. Dr. Leamy’s presentations are always fun and approachable. Just for the Wing Haven audience, Leamy will share about the characteristics of the Red Earred Slider Turtle in honor of Wing Haven's resident turtle, Ruby.
