Given that Martin Edwards was well known in the birding community, the Kingston Field Naturalists’(KFN) would like to invite all in that community to join us at our Annual dinner meeting, Thursday May 17, where we will pay tribute to the life of our Honourary President, Martin H. Edwards. Martin died February 16, 2012 while birding in Brazil. Martin served the KFN from 1954 to the present. As well as being President of our club, he was also President of both the Federation of Ontario Naturalists and Canadian Nature Federation. He was also involved in nature conservation at the international scale.
Several fellow birders will share stories and photographs of Martin’s many adventures. Barbara Canton, Martin’s daughter will also show some of Martin’s own beautiful bird photos.
