QCBC member Peggy Maslow will present “Birding in Cuba"
Peggy was among a group of 15 birders traveling with Naturalist
Ventures who toured Cuba early in 2017. The group saw 112 bird species
including 17 of the Cuban endemics, Cuba's national bird - the Cuban Trogon,
and the world's smallest bird - the Bee Hummingbird. Also seen were an
additional 19 species that are endemic to the West Indies, such as the Great
Lizard-Cuckoo and flamingos. The group visited the city of Trinidad, Havana,
and Hemingway's house as well. Peggy will share photos from the trip, mostly
taken by another member of the tour group, Martin Lonow.
Peggy is a retired teacher, a QCBC member, and is president of North
Shore Audubon Society.
