The regular meeting of the Nova Scotia Bird Society will take place at  
the Nova Scotia Museum of Natural History, 1747 Summer Street,  
Halifax, Nova Scotia, 7:30 p.m.

The main presentation will be Journey to the Most Remote Place on  
Earth: Magnificent Migrations of the Greater Shearwater by  Dr. Rob  
Ronconi, Greater Shearwaters are among the most abundant seabirds in  
the North Atlantic summer, yet we know very little about them. Since  
2005, the Grand Manan Whale and Seabird Research Station has been  
studying shearwaters in the Bay of Fundy where they spend their winter  
(our summer) fattening up for long distance migrations. Dr. Ronconi  
will be presenting on the trials and tribulations of working with  
these magnificent seabirds. Highlights include the first ever  
deployments of satellite tags on Greater Shearwaters which documented  
their habitat use in the Maritimes and long distance migrations to  
Tristan da Cunha. From a birds-eye view, Dr. Ronconi will explore the  
ecological diversity of our oceans and the conservation challenges  
that face our seabirds.
