Re: [cayugabirds-l] Cayuga Bird Club February 2024 meeting

[Laura Stenzler]

TONIGHT!!!

The February meeting of the Cayuga Bird Club will be a Zoom meeting on Monday, 
Feb. 12 at 7:30 p.m. Register (for free) at http://tinyurl.com/cbc-2024-02

We hope you will join us for the presentation,  "Bird-window collisions:  a 
clear and present danger".  Luke DeGroote, Carnegie Museum of Natural History, 
will be our speaker.

Smack! That's the sound of a bird hitting a window-and you've probably heard it 
often.
Collisions with windows cause millions of bird fatalities every year. Luke 
DeGroote will discuss how Carnegie Museum of Natural History is addressing the 
issue by elucidating where collisions are more likely to occur, testing 
collision reducing markers at Powdermill Nature Reserve's experimental flight 
tunnel, tracking post-collision survival using new technologies, and reducing 
collisions through community engagement.
About the Speaker: Luke DeGroote received his MSc. in Natural Resources from 
Ohio State and B.S. in Wildlife Ecology from the University of 
Wisconsin-Madison.  Since 2012, DeGroote has overseen Carnegie Museum of 
Natural History's avian research programs including the operation of 
Powdermill's Avian Research Center (PARC) where he studies songbird migration, 
avian disease, breeding phenology, and avian perception of glass.  DeGroote 
aims to promote avian conservation through research, partnerships, and outreach.

Hope many of you will be onscreen with us.
