In partnership with The Barnstable Land Trust Author Pamela Lowell will be giving an author talk on her brand new book "My Summer with Ospreys: A Therapist's Journey Toward Hope, Community, and Healing Our Planet". As a trauma specialist, Pamela Lowell expertly guides us to the connections between therapy, the life of an artist, and the natural world as a place of healing. An avid birder, Pamela jumped at the chance to accompany Mass Audubon in their weekly Osprey nest monitoring project on the Westport River. She hoped to get some photos of cute Osprey chicks that she could use in her paintings. But what happened next was nothing short of transformative. In journal format, Lowell weaves together a deeply personal and exciting narrative as a passenger on the Lucky Me--along with a cast of dedicated staff and volunteers. Nature enthusiasts will enjoy descriptions of the nest monitoring process, banding, and translocation of Osprey chicks. Pamela perfectly captures our dilemma of being poised between desperate worry and the urgent need to do something specific to help our planet. With her original water colors throughout, this book inspires us all to be better stewards and healers of our ever-changing world. This Author talk, in collaboration with The Barnstable Land Trust, will be Wednesday July 24th at 1pm in the Main Meeting Room at the Osterville Village Library.
