Join Joy (Joys of Nature) virtually or in person and experience the sights and sounds of New Zealand animal life! New Zealand is home to many rare birds and marine mammals including the comical yellow-eyed penguin. Watch and listen as the yellow-eyed penguin returns from the ocean to feed its chick and the Antipodes Island parrot demonstrates “looks, personality and talent.” Not to be outdone, rare New Zealand sea lions make quite an impression as they interact on isolated South Island beaches, pods of rare Hector’s dolphins frolic near coastal shores and dusky dolphins play with kayakers as they travel deep into the fiords of southern New Zealand.  You must register to receive the Zoom link. If you plan to attend in person, registration is optional. Recommended for teens and adults.
