The eccentric professor explores the amazing adaptations of nocturnal animals with a special focus on owls.  Through amazing photographs, wacky props and audience participation, he will awaken a sense of appreciation and wonder for the creatures of the night.


Backwoods Buttercup

The unforgettable Backwoods Buttercup will emerge from his forest home to share his remarkable stories of his life in the woods.  The audience will discover the amazing adaptations and natural history of Wisconsin's plants and animals through myths, legends and audience participation stories.
