Virtual April Membership Meeting - Bruce Mast - The Magic and Mystery of Migration
Tuesday 05 April 2022, 07:30pm
Hits : 287

About the Presentation:
Next summer, somewhere in Canada, a Blackpoll Warbler will hatch, fledge, and grow to young adulthood. Come August, this half-ounce bird will fly 3,000 miles to the Maritime provinces and then out over the Atlantic Ocean to catch a northwest tail wind that will take it south to around Bermuda. A northeast trade wind will carry it back to land to complete its 80-hour journey over 2,000 miles of open ocean. Why? Join Bruce Mast for an exploration of the magic and mystery of bird migration. We’ll consider why birds migrate, how they know when and where to go, and how we can help them arrive safely.

About the Presenter:
Bruce Mast is a veteran birder, field trip leader, lecturer, photographer, and GGAS boardmember. His birding quests have taken him to far-flung corners of Africa, Southeast Asia, Central and South America, as well as all over North America. When he’s not birding, Bruce likes to help people reduce the greenhouse gas emissions from their homes.
