All are invited to the Cayuga Bird Club's first meeting for this fall on Monday, September 10, 7:30pm 9:00pm [7:15 for cookies & conversation] in the Johnson Center Auditorium. Please note: there will be NO speaker dinner before the meeting.
Our speaker is Sahas Barve, Ph.D. Candidate, Ecology and Evolutionary Biology, Cornell University. In his presentation, "Birds of India: Biogeography, Hotspots and a Brief History of Ornithology in the Region", Sahas will focus on the biogeography of Indian birds with an emphasis on the unique intermixing of palearctic and oriental elements in the formation of the existing avifaunal assemblage. He will provide some insight into the unusual Western Ghats bird fauna; briefly explore the history of Ornithology in India including the influence of American naturalists and scientists; and will finish by sharing his top 5 Indian birding spots. Looking forward to seeing many of you there Colleen Richards ____________________________________________________________ Woman is 53 But Looks 25 Mom reveals 1 simple wrinkle trick that has angered doctors... http://thirdpartyoffers.juno.com/TGL3141/5048db27716cc5b271ca6st03duc -- Cayugabirds-L List Info: http://www.NortheastBirding.com/CayugabirdsWELCOME http://www.NortheastBirding.com/CayugabirdsRULES http://www.NortheastBirding.com/CayugabirdsSubscribeConfigurationLeave.htm ARCHIVES: 1) http://www.mail-archive.com/cayugabirds-l@cornell.edu/maillist.html 2) http://www.surfbirds.com/birdingmail/Group/Cayugabirds 3) http://birdingonthe.net/mailinglists/CAYU.html Please submit your observations to eBird: http://ebird.org/content/ebird/ --
