Ozark naturalist Millicent Phillips has spent years observing and absorbing the life around her, learning the ways of the natural world. With enthusiasm and drama, she recounts the ways of the woods and fields and the thousands of interwoven stories of the creatures that call them home. Millie's stories are pure fact, cut close to the bone, no tall tales. Nature's wonder doesn't require embellishment. Her ongoing committment to the natural sciences is ever evident by her efforts and participation in projects dear to her including her selection by and participation on the Cornell Lab of Ornithology 'Rediscovering The Ivory-Billed Woodpecker' first Cache River search team.

Bring Ms. Phillips to work her magic with her hands on life science presentations at your school, community center, library, for a weekend workshop or anywhere people will gather, with a curiosity about their world.
