A small correction: the 6:00 PM speaker will be Stephane Perreault (not Stephanie). My apologies for the typo.
Rich Fried On Tuesday evening, April 11th, 2017, the Linnaean Society of New York 2016-17 Speaker Program will feature two new presentations. At 6:00 PM, Stephanie Perreault will present The American Redstart: A Birder's View: Stephane Perreault studied redstarts for six years at McGill University, including a DNA parentage study. Perreault's presentation on the American Redstart will focus on features that will allow birders and bird watchers to further appreciate these marvelous birds. The recognition of sexual dimorphism, delayed plumage maturation, individual plumage pattern, and songs that can be recognized to the individual, can provide more meaningful encounters with this species. Perreault has co-authored papers on the breeding biology of Redstarts and Yellow Warblers, and assisted in field studies of Cattle Egrets and Red-breasted Mergansers. Following the brief business meeting at 7:30 PM, Heather Lynch will present The Who, How, What, and Where of Life as a Penguin: How Studying Both Captive and Wild Populations of Penguins is Redefining "Normal": Dr. Heather Lynch, Associate Professor of Ecology and Evolution at the State University of New York at Stony Brook, will focus on recent developments at the interface of wild and captive penguin research. She will also discuss work on behavioral acoustics and reproductive behavior that will permit a more nuanced understanding of how climate change and other threats are likely to affect penguin populations over the next century. Her research is focused on uncovering the population dynamics and biogeographic distribution of Antarctic wildlife, with a particular focus on combining high-resolution satellite imagery and old-fashioned field expeditions to track the abundance and distribution of penguins. Both presentations are free and will be held in the Linder Theater on the first floor of the American Museum of Natural History in New York City. Enter at West 77th Street between Central Park West and Columbus Avenue. All welcome!
