SUMMARY:COMMUNITY: OIAS Program - Chimney Swift Conservation in Michigan
DESCRIPTION:Owashtanong Islands Audubon Society Monthly Program \nChimney Swift Conservation in Michigan \nPresenter: Chad Machinski\,Michigan Audubon SocietyTuesday\, March 17\, 2026 \n6:00-6:15 PM Social\, 6:15-7:30 PM Program \nLoutit District Library\n407 Columbus Avenue\nGrand Haven\, MI \n\nHow well do you know this compact\, aerial acrobat? Facing steep population declines\, the Chimney Swift is one urban bird that we should all get behind. In this presentation you will learn the identification and life history of the Chimney Swift along with issues these birds are grappling with. We will also discuss ways that YOU can help with Chimney Swift conservation and what Michigan Audubon is doing across the state to help this enigmatic bird.\nSpeaker Bio: While Chad’s first love is botany\, he doesn’t deny the intertwining nature of birds\, plants\, insects\, and all other organisms we share the world with. As Michigan Audubon’s Conservation Manager\, Chad is responsible for the management and care for all 20 of Michigan Audubon’s Sanctuaries around the state and bird specific programs such as Chimney Swift and Purple Martin conservation. In his spare time\, Chad enjoys tending to and expanding his native plant garden\, collecting plant specimens\, and learning more about our natural world. \n\nThis event was submitted to our community calendar page by an outside organizer and is not a Michigan Audubon event.
