#### Public lecture and book signing with Katrina van Grouw, Artist and Ornithologist

Imagine that you could see beneath the fluff and feather of a bird to view the bone and muscle in action. What would this perspective reveal about movement, structure, and evolution? *The Unfeathered Bird* is a *magnum opus*, twenty-five years in the making, which features 385 finely-rendered drawings and paintings of 200 bird species. In a presentation intended for artists, scientists, and bird lovers alike, Katrina van Grouw will explain her approach to preparing and drawing the specimens featured in her book and share her insights into bird anatomy and biomechanics.
