Laughing Whitefish Audubon Program
March 11, 2015 @ 7:00 pm - 8:30 pm
Gary Palmer and Skye Haas spent the springs of 2013 and 2014 on Peninsula Point, documenting bird species at as they migrated north from Lake Michigan. Located at the tip of Delta County’s Stonington Peninsula, Peninsula Point is arguably the most spectacular migration hotspot in the Upper Peninsula. Each spring, thousands of birds pass through this area, many stopping for a time to replenish their fat reserves to power the next legs of their journeys. It is clearly a crucial spot for the migration of a plethora of birds from diverse taxa, with waterfowl, shorebirds, and songbirds all particularly abundant.
Laughing Whitefish Audubon programs are held in the Community Room of the Peter White Public Library beginning at 7:00 p.m. The library is located at 217 N. Front Street in Marquette.
