[cayugabirds-l] Cayuga Bird Club April meeting

2024-04-10 Thread Colleen Richards
Next Monday, April 15, will be the next monthly meeting of the Cayuga Bird 
Club. Note: this is one week later than usual (due to the eclipse)
 Julie Hart, Project Coordinator, New York Breeding Bird Atlas III, will be 
giving her presentation, "How you can help NYs breeding birds" on 
Monday, April 15, 2024, 7:30pm at Foundation of Light at 391 Turkey Hill Rd.; 
social time starts at 7 pm, the reading of the bird list at 7:20, and club 
business at 7:30 followed by the presentation. Learn about the third Breeding 
Bird Atlas in NY and how you can help this community science project. Atlasing 
is a great way for birders of all abilities to learn about birds while directly 
contributing to science and conservation. This is the final year of the 5-year 
Atlas project. Can you help us fill in a gap for your favorite species? Do you 
like to bird somewhere unique or remote? The Atlas is a statewide survey and 
you can participate at any time using the free eBird app. Wile atlasing, you 
will explore new areas, search for clues into the secret lives of birds, and 
expand your understanding and appreciation of birds. Whether you have been 
sitting on the fence about contributing to the project or have never heard of 
the Atlas before, now is your chance to contribute to the largest community 
science project in the state. There won't be another atlas until 2040! Attend 
this talk to find out how you can participate and make an impact for bird 
conservation. About the Speaker: Julie started birding while working in Ithaca 
as a bird conservation intern with the Cornell Lab of Ornithology and Audubon. 
She traveled for several years doing field work around the globe, then spent 
several years chasing high-elevation birds around the Northeast and Hispaniola 
as the coordinator for Mountain Birdwatch, before she went on to earn her 
Masters degree studying the impacts of climate change on Cassia 
Crossbill in southern Idaho. After spending several years abroad, she is now 
the Project Coordinator for the third Breeding Bird Atlas in NY. She also 
serves as the co-chair of the North American Ornithological Atlas Committee. 
Members are invited to join Julie for dinner at Moosewood Restaurant 215 N 
Cayuga St, Ste 70 at 5:30 p.m. before the meeting. Please RSVP to Colleen 
Richards at clr82@juno.comby Friday (4/12) so reservations can be made. Colleen

[cayugabirds-l] Cayuga Bird Club April meeting

2017-04-05 Thread cl...@juno.com
Next Monday, April 10, will be the next monthly meeting of the Cayuga Bird 
Club. Bruce Smith and Katherine [Kit] Muma,  will give their presentation, 
"Kiwis and Kokakos: Wildlife Conservation in New Zealand".  Although they have 
both been on faculty in the Biology Dept. at Ithaca College, Bruce retired 3 
years ago. His courses included Animal Behavior; Aquatic Ecology; and Parasites 
and Vectors of Disease. Among the courses Kit has taught are Field Ornithology, 
and Bird Brains and Mind Games: Animal Consciousness. They spent parts of their 
last two sabbatical leaves in New Zealand.
 New Zealand bird species evolved in isolation, remote from any other 
significant land masses and virtually without terrestrial mammals. 
Consequently, the bird fauna was poorly adapted for the onslaught of mammalian 
predators that came with human settlement, first with the Maori people and 
later with European colonists. A significant proportion of the woodland species 
went extinct and many of the remaining ones are few in number and isolated on 
offshore island or remote patches of native forest.
 New Zealand, however, is a world leader in conservation, and has brought a 
number of their species back from the brink of extinction. Join us for an 
evening of video and still photography of birds of New Zealand, and a 
discussion of the challenges they face.The meeting will be held at the Cornell 
Laboratory of Ornithology. Doors open at 7:00 pm and there will be cookies and 
conversation starting at 7:15. Bird club business begins at 7:30 pm followed by 
the presentation. All are welcome.There will be no speaker dinner before the 
Club meeting.
See you all on Monday.
