SUMMARY:OWASHTANONG ISLANDS AUDUBON SOCIETY & MUSKEGON COUNTY NATURE CLUB — The birds of paradise of New Guinea
DESCRIPTION:Description: Doug Klein became enamored of the many Birds of Paradise from reading about them and watching videos of them in their jungle haunts on the island of New Guinea. Tonight\, he will introduce these beautiful birds and the scientists who have studied them to us through professionally made videos. \nSpeaker Bio: Doug Klein has been birding since he was 17 years old. He is a graduate of Michigan State University and was a mechanical engineer during his working life\, but has since retired. He leads the Barry County Bird Club and lives in Hastings\, Michigan. \nThe Owashtanong Islands Audubon Society and Muskegon County Nature Club offer educational and informative lectures and fellowship at meetings held on the third Tuesday of the month\, September through May\, at 6 p.m. at the Loutit District Library (407 Columbus Ave.\, Grand Haven\, MI 49417). \n\nThis event was submitted to our community calendar page by an outside organizer and is not a Michigan Audubon event.

SUMMARY:AUDUBON SOCIETY OF KALAMAZOO — Bird on the Move: Looking to the Past to Secure the Future of the Kirtland's Warbler
DESCRIPTION:On November 25\, Dr. Steve Roels will be presenting on what could be argued is truly a “State Bird” of Michigan\, the Kirtland’s Warbler. The Kirtland’s Warbler is a Great Lakes endemic species that summers and breeds in young jack pine forests\, primarily in Michigan’s Northern Lower Peninsula. It winters in scrub forests in the Bahamas. This species was nearly lost to extinction due to fire suppression in its very limited breeding habitat and nest parasitism by Brown-headed Cowbirds. \nThe removal of the Kirtland’s Warbler from the Federal endangered species list as a result of sustained conservation efforts is a victory for the bird and its champions. Yet threats to the species’ future\, including climate change and human development\, persist. Examining the deep history of Kirtland’s Warbler and its instinctive behaviors offers hope that the bird\, despite its fussy reputation\, can adapt to a changing planet. Unprecedented research projects are revealing how the warbler’s movement ecology has enabled its survival across millennia and what we must do to support the warbler as it navigates the new millennium. \nDr. Steve Roels is a conservation biologist with American Bird Conservancy\, currently serving as the Kirtland’s Warbler Program Director and Conservation Team Coordinator. He earned his MA from the University of Kansas in 2011\, studying population restoration of a rare prairie plant. He earned his PhD from Michigan State University in 2018\, studying bird ecology in tropical forest restorations. He has conducted field research in Michigan\, Kansas\, Texas\, Colorado\, Vietnam\, and Panama. His scientific work has been published in peer-reviewed journals including Avian Conservation and Ecology; Restoration Ecology; and Agriculture\, Ecosystems\, and Environment. \nWe hope you’ll join us on Monday\, November 25\, at People’s Church\, 1758 North 10th Street\, Kalamazoo. Come at 7:00 PM for some refreshments and socializing. Snacks and beverages will be provided. The one-hour program will start at 7:30. Masks are recommended but not required in the church. Handicap parking and access is at either the front or the rear entrance. \nWe will have a simultaneous Zoom link to the meeting for those who can’t make it or feel uncomfortable as yet to attend in person. This link will be available shortly before the meeting on our website (https://kalamazooaudubon.org/calendar/). We will also be recording the meeting for later viewing. \n\nThis event was submitted to our community calendar page by an outside organizer and is not a Michigan Audubon event. If you have questions\, please reach out to the event organizers or the contact information provided in the event description.
