Thursday, October 21, 7:00 p.m. "Uganda: Life in the Pearl of Africa" George Reynolds Branch Library
Uganda – the Pearl of Africa – is a land of friendly and gentle people, moderate climate, scenic lakes, rivers, hills, and mountains and stunning biodiversity, but also with a harsh history and stubborn poverty. In this program, Bob Andrews will discuss the educational work he did for four years at a small college, introduce the daily life of rural Uganda, and give a sampling of Uganda’s rich flora and fauna. Bob Andrews, born and raised in Denver and currently living in Englewood, is a long-time Colorado field ornithologist and naturalist. He has led many birding field trips and is the senior author of Colorado Birds. He graduated from the University of Colorado with a Master’s in biology. He lived in Africa for 13 years, 9 years in Namibia and 4 years in Uganda, where he was a biology and geography lecturer, Academic Registrar, and Assistant Vice-Chancellor at Central Buganda University. This Boulder County Nature Association (www.bcna.org) special program is free and open to all. The Reynolds Branch Library is located on Table Mesa Drive one block west of Broadway and opposite the Table Mesa King Soopers.
