This has been rescheduled from 11/9. Dr. Ron Butler will give his talk on lichens now on 11/9.

Are you a snowbird? Do you head south during the winter in
search of sunny, warm weather with plentiful fresh
local fruits and vegetables? Just like human snowbirds, many
of “our” birds head south for the winter as well. Come join
Sally Stockwell, Director of Conservation at Maine Audubon,
to learn about the travels and winter homes of some of our
breeding birds. As a bonus you’ll also learn about the
migratory pathways of several bats and insects, and learn
about the true snowbirds – those that visit us each winter
from the Canadian taiga and tundra
