FOUR HARBORS AUDUBON SOCIETY SPRING LECTURE: SEARCHING FOR LOST BIRDS
Zoom lecture on Wednesday, May 20 at 7 p.m. EST Guest Speaker, John C. Mittermeier, PhD Just over a hundred species of birds are currently considered “lost” meaning that they are not extinct but that no one has been able to document them in the past decade or more. What are these lost birds and why can’t anyone find them? Where do they occur? Do they matter for conservation? Join John C. Mittermeier, the Director of the Search for Lost Birds at American Bird Conservancy, to answer these questions and hear stories about the efforts underway to rediscover lost birds around the world. John C. Mittermeier, PhD, is the Director of the Search for Lost Birds at American Bird Conservancy where he supports projects to look for lost bird species around the world. Prior to joining American Bird Conservancy in 2020, he received a PhD in biodiversity conservation from the University of Oxford and he has conducted ornithological research and fieldwork in Suriname, Papua New Guinea, Madagascar, and the Solomon Islands, among other places.
