Note Tuesday date. Prepare to be amazed, as well as educated, when Francie Krawcke, Raptor Specialist and Camp Director at Leslie Science and Nature Center introduces us to several live raptors. Francie will explain how these birds live in a way that even non-birders can understand, while sharing tales that reveal aspects of their behavior that even bird experts may not know. The event is co-sponsored with the Huron Valley Chapter of the Sierra Club.

Join Andy Johnson, Washtenaw Audubon Society member, for a program about his summer with a Cornell Lab of Ornithology team studying Hudsonian Godwits in Churchill, Manitoba. Andy will discuss the history and biological significance of the Churchill region, as well as the details of his work with the spectacular Limosa haemastica. Churchill is not only an exciting place to view breeding shorebirds and other arctic birds, but also a special place for other wildlife, such as Polar Bears and Beluga Whales, so expect an interesting collection of photos to accompany the talk.
