David Giblin will give a presentation on wildflowers at Mount Rainier as the 25th annual Summer Lecture Series continues at Nisqually National Wildlife Refuge.
Giblin is an author and botanist and works as the Burke Museum herbarium collections manager. His talk will be at 7 p.m. Wednesday.
The lecture series, titled “Revealing Nature: Our Heritage and Our Future,” features environmental topics ranging from bees to wolves. The free lectures are held every Wednesday evening through August.
All lectures are held at the refuge visitor center auditorium. Each lasts about one hour and is followed by time for questions. Attendance is limited to 100, and seating will be issued starting at 6 p.m. on a first-come basis, and you must be present. The entrance fee is waived for those attending the lectures. On lecture nights, the visitor center will be open until 7 p.m. and again after the lecture.
For more information, call the refuge at 360-753-9467.
