Hi all

 

The Pictou Co Naturalists will be hosting Dr. Cindy Staicer from Dalhousie
University Tues Mar 6, 6:30 pm at the New Glasgow Library, 182 Dalhousie St.
Dr. Staicer will lead a presentation/workshop on Landbird Species at Risk in
Forested Wetlands. 

Dr. Staicer is professor of biology at Dalhousie U. and focuses her research
in behaviour and ecology of forest birds in natural and managed forest
ecosystems. Her current research, the topic of this presentation, concerns
three species at risk that inhabit forested wetlands in our area- the Canada
Warbler, Rusty Blackbird and Olive-sided Flycatcher.  The goal of her
research is to identify important breeding areas for these species, and to
engage the public in stewardship of high quality habitat. 

The workshop will introduce the project, summarize what is known about these
birds and their habitats, provide identification tips, describe the
different ways volunteers can participate in field surveys and submit
sightings and discuss other ways that people can contribute to the recovery
of these species. 

 

This is a great chance to learn the value of wetlands in our forests and how
these special species need and use these habitats during spring and summer.
These species have had alarming declines in population in last couple
decades Two of these species over-winter in northern South America so the
stories on their life cycles are fascinating. Please mark the date on your
calendar and come on out and learn how you can be a help in contributing to
the research. Everyone welcome and bring along a friend. 

 

Admission is free but registration is required (this will allow us to
communicate  weather cancelations). To register or if you have questions,
please contact us. Contact: LandbirdSAR@MerseyTobeatic.ca
