Ty Smedes will give the presentation "Woodland Warblers of Iowa" our Ames Big Bluestem Audubon meeting next Thursday, March 17th. The meeting begins at 7 PM, with the presentation starting around 7:25 PM. The meeting will be held at the 4-H Building on the ISU campus.
Ty's presentation will include images of warblers catching insects & worms, singing to attract a mate or defend a territory, and feeding young. Ty will discuss migration routes, wintering areas, and best times/places to observe warblers, along with recommended books and videos which can help the enthusiast identify and learn more about these stunning passerines. Intimate images of resident Prothonotary Warblers, nesting, and feeding young, at his own Beaver Bottoms Wetland, just south of Granger will be included. Join us, and enjoy warbler behaviorism at its best. Visitors are welcome!
