Nature Book ClubJoin us for a book club chat and naturalist led hike! November's book is New York Times Bestseller "The Soul of an Octopus" by Sy Montgomery. Meet at the Visitor Center.

The intelligence of dogs, birds and chimpanzees was only recently accepted by scientists, who now are establishing the intelligence of the octopus, watching them solve problems and deciphering the meaning of their color-changing camouflage techniques. Montgomery chronicles this growing scientific appreciation of the octopus, but also tells a love story. Funny, entertaining, touching, and profound, The Soul of an Octopus ultimately reveals what octopuses can teach us about the nature and consciousness of the mind.
