SUMMARY:Great Backyard Bird Count
DESCRIPTION:Count Birds in Your Backyard!\nLaunched in 1998 by the Cornell Lab of Ornithology and National Audubon Society\, the Great Backyard Bird Count\nwas the first online citizen-science project to collect data on wild birds and to display results in near real-time. For\ninformation about the GBBC see their website at birdcount.org. You can help out by counting birds for as little as\n15 minutes! Local GBBC get togethers throughout southern Maryland will be advertised on our Facebook page.  The SMAS field trip at Hard Bargain Farm on Sunday\, February 20 will participate in the count! \n

SUMMARY:Birds and Cold Weather Adaptation
DESCRIPTION:Photo by Suniti Bhushan Datta \nMost bird species enjoy warmer climes\, but many have adapted to frigid conditions. How and why has this occurred? Dr. Sahas Barve will answer these and other questions about cold weather adaptation\, with an emphasis on Himalayan birds. Amongst other degrees\, Dr. Barve has a Ph.D. in Ecology and Evolutionary Biology from Cornell University and is currently a Peter Buck Fellow at the Smithsonian National Museum of Natural History. \nInstead of in-person meetings\, SMAS is hosting virtual lectures using Zoom.

SUMMARY:Why Diversity Matters: Gender Biases and the Study of Female Bird Song
DESCRIPTION:  \nFemale birds have historically been neglected or ignored in studies of coloration and song. Fortunately\, now that researchers of diverse backgrounds participate\, this prejudice is changing. Studies are indicating female song is much more common than previously thought\, and their role in bird song evolution may be significant. \nOur expert speaker will be Dr. Kevin Omland\, Professor Biological Sciences at the University of Maryland\, Baltimore County. Please join us for what promises to be a fascinating discussion! \nInstead of in-person meetings\, SMAS is hosting virtual lectures using Zoom.

SUMMARY:Native Plants for Birds and Butterflies
DESCRIPTION:Great Spangled Fritillary on Wild Bergamot blossom. Photo by Lynne Wheeler \nNative plant gardens are quite literally for the birds. While many of us like songbirds\, insects are often less appealing. But backyard species like caterpillars play a crucial role in supporting our most beloved bird species. When you create native plant gardens\, you support insect diversity—more bugs for birds! \nJoin Dr. Chris Puttock as he explains the importance of native plants. Chris has three decades’ experience in conservation and restoration. He is the chair of ESRAG (Environmental Sustainability Rotarian Action Group) and is executive director of Chesapeake Natives\, a nursery producing plants to sustain the ecology of the Chesapeake Bay watershed. \nInstead of in-person meetings\, SMAS is hosting virtual lectures using Zoom.

SUMMARY:Vulture: The Private Life of an Unloved Bird
DESCRIPTION:Author Katie Fallon with a vulture chick \nVultures are often overlooked\, underappreciated\, and unloved\, despite the vital role they play in healthy ecosystems. Worldwide\, vultures are more likely to be threatened or endangered than any other group of raptor\, but in the United States Turkey and Black Vultures may be increasing in number. Speaker Katie Fallon discusses the life and times of the noble Turkey Vulture\, including its feeding\, nesting\, and roosting habits\, migratory behaviors\, and common misconceptions. \nFallon is the author of Vulture: The Private Life of an Unloved Bird (2020\, 2017). A member of the International Association of Avian Trainers and Educators\, Katie has worked with birds since 1998. Over the last twenty years she has given educational presentations featuring live raptors\, vultures\, parrots\, and corvids. \nInstead of in-person meetings\, SMAS is hosting virtual lectures using Zoom. We will send invitations via email with a link for joining each online event. If you do not get our Osprey newsletter via email\, you need to sign up first. Please scroll to the bottom of this page and submit your email address to subscribe.
