PARK RAPIDS — Headwaters Center for Lifelong Learning will host Steve Maanum presenting "Capturing the Moment" from 1 to 2:30 p.m. on Tuesday, Oct. 18, at the Armory Arts and Events Center, 203 Park Ave. S.
During the presentation, Maanum will document natural processes in the lives of wood ducks, ruffed grouse, great blue herons and loons, a release said.
During his 34-year career as a teacher, Maanum combined classroom lessons with hands-on outdoor activities where wildlife was usually the center of the activities. Following his retirement in 2007, he has continued to share his love of wildlife through writing, photography workshops, and community events such as HCLL, the release added.
Through a combination of education and entertainment, Maanum seeks to fulfill three goals: to teach each member of the audience at least one fact about wildlife that they did not know before the presentation, to make them smile or laugh at least once, and to go away with a desire to learn about a Minnesota wildlife species of their choice and then to share their observations with others — especially children.
