[Tweeters] REMINDER:  WOS Monthly Meeting, Mon., Jan.2, Conversations with Secretive Birds

meetings at wos.org meetings at wos.org
Thu Dec 29 18:23:13 PST 2022


Secretive birds intrigue us, but their elusive nature makes them difficult to study, so there is remarkably little known about the biology of many wetland birds. Puget Sound Bird Observatory (PSBO) has been studying five under-detected, wetland species -- American Bittern, Sora, Virginia Rail, Green Heron and Pied-billed Grebe -- for the past six years to assess their population trends.  

Our presenter, Cindy Easterson, manages PSBO’s Regional Wetland Secretive Bird Monitoring project, in addition to providing oversight for a wide variety of other avian monitoring projects.  She will explain how you can participate in this work.  

She holds an integrated Bachelor of Arts and Science Degree with a focus on Wetland Science from the University of Washington and has served on the Board of PSBO since 2010.

The meeting will be conducted via Zoom.  Please go to http://wos.org/about-wos/monthly-meetings/ for instructions on participation and to get the Zoom link.  Sign-in will begin at 7:15 pm.

This meeting is open to all as WOS invites everyone in the wider birding community to attend.  

If you are not yet a member, I hope you will consider becoming one at http://wos.org/about-wos/membership/,

Please join us!

Vicki King
WOS Program Coordinator
