Hi,

On my way to work this morning the billboard at the museum got my 
attention.  For those interested the quote from the museum's website:

Wednesday, April 1

Public Talk
Discovering Arctic Alpine Shorebirds in Beringia

7:30pm- 9:00pm
Presenter: Laurel McIvor, Curator of Interpretation, Museum of Natural 
History
Travel on a 2002 research expedition to Beringia, the lost land in northern 
and central Yukon, in search of secretive arctic alpine shorebirds. Shorebird 
populations worldwide are rapidly declining due to global warming & habitat 
disruption. Does the remoteness of alpine shorebirds protect them or make 
them more vulnerable?

Free: Food donations appreciated
limited seating
