Lanphear LIVE! Presents: The Snowy Owls of Logan Airport, Film and Discussion with Norman Smith

From the runway to the wild, Norman Smith, a raptor specialist who has worked at Mass Audubon for nearly 60 years, has dedicated his life to protecting and relocating the snowy owls from a most unexpected place, the 1,800 acres of flat, open space known as Logan airport in Boston, MA. Affectionately called “the Owl Man of Logan Airport,” Smith has single-handedly relocated more than 900 snowy owls, creating the blueprint for how airports across the US and Canada can manage wildlife conflict. Join award-winning photographer and filmmaker Anna Miller as she chronicles the rescue, rehabilitation and release of these magnificent birds and brings light to Norman’s lifelong mission to stimulate a passion in us all to better understand, appreciate, and care for the natural world in which we live.
