CCC News MountainWildlifeDays MainOn Saturday July 19, Kim Delozier, a 32 year retired ranger with the Great Smoky Mountains National Park and author of “Bear in the Back Seat” will share some of his exciting encounters with wildlife found in his popular best-selling book.  In a unique presentation titled “What Little Red Riding Hood Didn’t Tell You About the Big, GOOD Wolf”, Dr. Dave Unger, a talented presenter and biology professor from Maryville College, TN; takes the audience into the world of mammals in an interesting and insightful look at wildlife.

Also on Saturday, an area favorite Michael Skinner of the Balsam Mountain Nature Center, will provide an opportunity to better understand wildlife during his “Wings N’ Things” presentation focusing on “live” birds of prey and other animals.   The North Georgia Zoo will present their outstanding “Wildlife Wonders” program designed to get up close and learn more about a variety of familiar and unusual animals.

Following the music, the audience will continued to be uplifted in a unique spiritual way featuring Bill Lea’s world class nature photography along with his inspiring commentary. Lea’s presentation will be enhanced with a beautiful “live” musical backdrop by noted pianist/arranger, Bryan Heller.
