Leslie Patrick, Outreach Specialist for the Arkansas Natural Heritage Commission, will present Arkansas Woodpeckers.

Arkansas is home to nine woodpecker species. This program explores characteristics common to all woodpeckers, why they are a keystone species, the history of the extinct Ivory-billed Woodpecker, and conservation efforts to save the federally endangered Red-cockaded Woodpecker.
