The Cayuga Bird Club will be meeting on Monday, September 14, at 7:30 at the Cornell Lab of Ornithology with cookies and coversation at 7:15. Our speaker will be John W. Fitzpatrick, Louis Agassiz Fuertes Director of the Cornell Lab of Ornithology. His presentation is entitled, "To Interpret and Conserve: After 100 years, what has Cornell Lab of Ornithology come to mean?"
As part of the Cornell Lab of Ornithology’s centennial celebration and as the Lab’s director, John Fitzpatrick, will explore what has changed, what has flourished, and what’s to come within the unique Lab founded by Arthur Allen and colleagues in 1915. Moving beyond history, this seminar looks ahead to the challenges faced by the Lab and everyone who cares about nature. We must regard our first hundred years as a “trial run”—an experiment that has proven itself worthy of another hundred-year run, but this time the expectations—our measures of success—will be far more stringent, and the stakes are far higher as we work to help save the earth’s birds and biodiversity. Members are invited to dinner with the Fitzpatricks before the meeting at 5:30 at Taste of Thai Express (Rt. 13N downtown) . Please RSVP by noon Monday to cl...@juno.com so reservations can be made. ____________________________________________________________ Want to place your ad here?
