The next Queens County Bird Club meeting will be on Wednesday, January 15, 2025, at 7:30 PM at the Alley Pond Environmental Center, 229-10 Northern Blvd, Douglaston, NY 11362. Karlo Mirth will present "The Wonderful, Unusual Fauna of Tasmania" In November 2023, Alison and Karlo Mirth spent two weeks driving around Tasmania, the beautiful island off the southeast coast of Australia. Their main goal was to see as many of Australia's unique fauna, including the two fascinating egg-laying mammals, the Platypus and the Echidna. Other animals on their wish list were kangaroos, koala, wombat, wallabies, and, with a little luck, Tasmanian Devil. Many bird species were seen as well. The trip also included a short visit to Adelaide and the mostly undeveloped Kangaroo Island.
Please be prompt and ring the bell to be let in since there will not be coverage at the front desk.
