*Presenter: Vernon R.L. Head* *Location: Brooklyn Public Library Central Branch <http://www.bklynlibrary.org/locations/central> at Grand Army Plaza* Vernon R.L. Head, chairman of BirdLife of South Africa, will present his quest to solve the mystery of an isolated wing of an unknown species of nightjar collected in Ethiopia in 2009. In his search for a possible new species, Head is not just on a mission for a spectacular tick, but he places his endeavor in the context of other rare and endangered species suffering from human impact on the environment. http://www.brooklynbirdclub.org/meetings.htm Dennis Hrehowsik Brooklyn -- NYSbirds-L List Info: http://www.NortheastBirding.com/NYSbirdsWELCOME http://www.NortheastBirding.com/NYSbirdsRULES http://www.NortheastBirding.com/NYSbirdsSubscribeConfigurationLeave.htm ARCHIVES: 1) http://www.mail-archive.com/nysbirds-l@cornell.edu/maillist.html 2) http://www.surfbirds.com/birdingmail/Group/NYSBirds-L 3) http://birdingonthe.net/mailinglists/NYSB.html Please submit your observations to eBird: http://ebird.org/content/ebird/ --
