The Big Bluestem Audubon Society will have our sixth meeting of the year
on Thursday, 2/21/2013
At 5:15 pm we will have an informal get together before the meeting at
the INDIA PALACE, located at 120 Hayward Ave, Ames. Our speakers for the
evening, Stuart Sparkman and Karen Viste-Sparkman, will meet us there and
we can enjoy some food and good company. Join us if you can.
At 7 pm we will start the main meeting at the Extension 4-H building,
the
same room as before (for directions, go to bigbluestemaudubon.org and
click on meeting places, meeting locations). Be prepared to share a
nature experience you have recently had if you so desire.
Karen Viste-Sparkman is a wildlife biologist and Stuart Sparkman teaches
advanced mathematics at Ames High School. They have traveled to
northwestern Ecuador for birding and will present their experiences on the
west slope of the spectacular Andes range, and then on the Napo River in
the Amazon basin. Their talk will highlight EQUADOR BIRDS.
We will close with refreshments and more time to share some stories with
each other.
Hope you can make it on Thursday!
