Our guest speaker will be Jeff Bagshaw from Maui. Jeff started exploring Hawaiian land and ocean ecosystems on Maui in 1988, first as a National Park Ranger at Haleakala, then working with the Hawaii Nature Center. He now serves as the Outreach Staff for the Maui Nui Branch of Hawaii Forestry and Wildlife. And he has a particular interest in bats.
