Jennifer Pines will present "Birding in England with side trips to Amsterdam and Germany". Jennifer had the opportunity to visit Great Britain twice last year, in January and May, with add on trips to Germany and the Netherlands in the spring trip. While it wasn't a birding trip, she had finally put her foot down after family trips yielded almost no birds. (Italy 11 species, China 8 species) and said, "There will be birding!" Seeing two different seasons, winter ducks in January and arriving migrants in May gives a fuller picture of the variety of species found in northern Europe and Great Britain. Jennifer Wilson-Pines has loved birds since age 10 when her parents put up a bird feeder. She has been active with the North Shore Audubon Society since 1997 as Conservation Chair, field trip leader, Newsletter editor, and President. She is the Co-compiler for Northern Nassau Christmas Count. She managed a large format still life advertising photography studio in the city for 12 years in the pre-digital age but now shoots for ID and enjoyment because she is no longer willing to cart 50 lbs. of camera gear. Nikon Coolpix p950 Bridge super zoom, 5 spare batteries and 2 chips. Please be prompt and ring the bell to be let in since there won't be any coverage at the front desk.
