Come and meet the famous Bat Lady of Connecticut, Gerri Griswold.  She'll be bringing a grumpy Brown Bat with her as she presents about the biology, ecology, sonar and cultural highs and lows of these creatures.

Gerri Griswold is Director of Administration and Development at The White Memorial Conservation Center in Litchfield, Connecticut. She has handled bats for twenty-four years as a wildlife rehabilitator and educator and is licensed by the Connecticut Department of Energy and Environmental Protection and the United States Department of Agriculture to keep and exhibit non-releasable bats and more recently, porcupines for education.
