SUMMARY:Amie Adams "The Observer" at the Prairie Woods Nature Center
DESCRIPTION:There will be three opportunities Saturday\, March 15th\, to meet Amie Adams “The Observer” at the Praire Woods Nature Center between 10:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m. \nAmie Adams is an Iowa Master Naturalist and author of The Observer. You will get to learn about a little-known Iowa naturalist named Olaf Wolden. Born in Emmet County in northwest Iowa in 1886\, Olaf lived through a time when the Iowa landscape was changing rapidly. Throughout his lifetime\, Olaf studied plants\, birds\, and the landscape of his home. We will be offering 3 different visit opportunities with Amie Adams\, attend one or attend all\, its up to you! You do not need to have read her book to attend.Preregistration is strongly encouraged and appreciated. Day is Co-sponsored by the Orange City Library. \nThe morning Adult discussion is from 10:00 a.m. to 11:30 a.m. This session will include a short lesson about naturalists from Iowa’s past\, a book talk and Q&A about The Observer\, and a nature walk (feel free to bring your favorite field guide or your binoculars). This session is geared toward adults of all ages. \nThen there will be a Lunch Chat from 11:45 a.m. to 12:24 p.m. This is your opportunity to bring your lunch and picnic with the author. \nThe afternoon session will include a family discussion from 1:30 p.m. to 3:00 p.m. This session will include a short lesson about naturalists from Iowa’s past\, a few stories from The Observer\, and an interactive nature walk where we think about how to tell our own stories about our favorite places (feel free to bring your favorite field guide or your binoculars). This session is geared toward families. \nYou do not have to read the book in order to attend. The book blurb goes as follows: \nThe Observer: The Life and Writings of Bernt Olaf Wolden by Amie Adams \nOlaf Wolden was one of those rare people who knew his home place with an intimacy most of us can only aspire to\, and he shared a bond with all the beings he lived among\, a bond that is difficult to find in our modern age. A naturalist in every sense of the word\, Olaf had a personal devotion to tracking bird migrations and flower bloomings\, a scientific drive to catalogue mosses and lichens with exacting precision\, and a desire to share his passion for the natural world with others. From 1930-1968\, he contributed a column titled Nature Notes to The Estherville Daily News where he shared musings and observations about the natural world. Olaf’s story reaches back to the early 19th century\, a time when northwest Iowa was a wilder place than the one we have today. This book tells the story of Olaf’s childhood in Island Grove and his development as a naturalist and botanist. Readers will experience Olaf’s love of nature in his own words through a curated selection of 100 of his Nature Notes and an accompanying biography. \npreregister at siouxcountyparks.org
