SUMMARY:Swifts in the City: Presentation and Roost Watch
DESCRIPTION:Enjoying birds doesn’t always mean heading to the woods or shoreline. Join Michigan Audubon on August 22 at 7:30 p.m. for an in-depth look at Chimney Swifts\, an urban bird species that has suffered steep population declines in recent decades. \nOnce nesting in caves\, cliff faces\, and hollow trees\, this species has become dependent on man-made structures to simulate this habitat — most often opting for large chimneys. These aerial insectivores spend their days eating and bathing mid-flight\, returning to the roost at night to sleep. \nMichigan Audubon Conservation Program Coordinator Linnea Rowse will share a general overview of Chimney Swifts\, causes for their declining population\, ways you can help\, citizen science projects\, and more. \nFollowing the presentation\, we will caravan to a nearby roost\, where you can observe hundreds of Chimney Swifts flocking together in a tornado-like formation before dropping into the chimney for the night. \nThis free event will begin at the Michigan Audubon office\, located at 2310 Science Parkway\, Suite 200\, Okemos\, MI 48864. \nIf you have any questions please contact Linnea Rowse at lrowse@michiganaudubon.org or 517-580-7364.

SUMMARY:Seminar Series: Safe Passage and Window Collisions with Heidi Trudell
DESCRIPTION:Hundreds of millions of healthy birds are killed each year when they collide with glass at residences and office buildings. This is a serious problem. Bird populations are facing steep declines\, and aside from habitat loss and cats\, glass is the leading cause of death. Join Heidi in exploring the myriad solutions that can save birds\, starting right at home. \nThis event is part of the Michigan Audubon Seminar Series. Seminars are free and open to the public. Sessions take place on the second Monday of each month from 7 – 8 p.m. at the Michigan Audubon office located at 2310 Science Parkway\, Suite 200\, Okemos MI\, 48864.

SUMMARY:Chimney Swift Volunteer Training
DESCRIPTION:Are you looking for a new citizen science project to take part in? Michigan Audubon is seeking volunteers to survey Chimney Swift roosts across the state during fall migration. Surveying for swifts is fun\, easy\, and suitable for all ages. \nMonitoring takes place at dusk as potentially hundreds of swifts come together in a tornado-like flock before entering the roost for the night. Finding potential roost locations can be an adventure in itself and starts with looking for large\, uncapped chimneys on historical buildings\, old factories\, schools\, churches\, courthouses\, or libraries. \nMichigan Audubon will provide training for those interested in monitoring roosts on August 7 at 8 p.m. The training session will begin at the MA office (located at 2310 Science Parkway\, Okemos\, MI 48864) and proceed to a nearby roost for participants to get a firsthand look at these birds. \nAlthough attracted to urban areas with high human population densities\, this species is often overlooked and its distribution and numbers in Michigan are poorly understood. By surveying these roosts\, we hope to gather information to help support conservation of critical roosting structures in Michigan. \nThe annual national survey occurs on the second weekends in August and September (Friday – Sunday nights)\, but we are looking for volunteers to survey at any time throughout August and September. Surveys begin 30 minutes before sunset and end when the last swift enters the chimney. \nLearn more about conducting the surveys\, find data sheets\, and enter survey data at www.michiganaudubon.org/bfc/chsw. Contact Michigan Audubon Conservation Program Coordinator Linnea Rowse with questions at lrowse@michiganaudubon.org or 517-580-7364.
