## About

A Saturday-morning nature talk at the Jacksonville Arboretum all about crows, one of nature's most clever and misunderstood birds. Crow rehabilitationist Beth Cummings explains their problem-solving skills, intelligence and complex social lives, and what makes the crows living around Jacksonville neighborhoods so remarkable. Part of the arboretum's Discovering Nature Nearby series, it suits curious school-age kids and their grown-ups who like animal science. Tickets are per person, with a member discount. Sponsored by JAXPORT.
