Mammals of the Ottawa area (Feb. 11, 2017)

Unlike birds, most wild mammals are little seen. Some are nocturnal, some are crepuscular, some are subterranean – and a good many have reason to fear us and hide. But they are here all around us and Gordon Robertson from the OFNC reviewed our local species groups. The meeting was a great success because everyone – our speaker, our leaders, and our members – has had memorable experience with one or more of our local mammals.
