[Tweeters] WOS Monthly Meeting, October 6, 2025: (on-line only)

[via Tweeters]

Ah, the autumn solstice is upon us, and with it comes the beginning of a new season of WOS Monthly Meetings.  The Washington Ornithological Society (WOS) is pleased to announce our next Monthly Meeting: on Monday, Oct 6, Kersti Muul will present, "When Science Meets Serendipity" 

Is our fascination and engagement with wildlife fueled more by familiarity with the individual or the entire species?  How about both?  Our opening Monthly Meeting of the season explores how one determined wildlife field biologist and a single Bald Eagle's uniqueness brought a community together, solved a mystery and ultimately brought the eagle back home.  It's a compelling case for the power of curiosity, community and hope, especially meaningful during these challenging times.

Kersti Muul is a wildlife field biologist, urban conservation specialist and science educator whose work focuses on the intersection of wildlife and urban environments.  She is a frequent contributor to local and national media and centers on the impacts of human activity on natural spaces and biodiversity.  She also works to empower and educate the community through outreach, monitoring, photography and community science projects.  Kersti is the founder of Salish Wildlife Watch - dedicated to promoting responsible recreation, diversity and free access to awe in the outdoors.

This meeting will be conducted virtually, via Zoom (no in-person attendance).  Sign-in will begin at 7:15 pm, and the meeting commences at 7:30 pm.  Please go to the WOS Monthly Meetings page:   https://wos.org/monthly-meetings/  for instructions on participation and to get the Zoom link.
