*Venezuelan Bird Rediscovered After Nearly 16 Years 
*

With support from American Bird Conservancy, an expedition team in 
Venezuela rediscovered the Urich's Tyrannulet last month. Scientists 
fear this endemic species — one of the most poorly known birds in South 
America — could soon be at risk of going extinct due to the destruction 
of its cloud forest habitat. The rediscovery, which provided scientists 
with important information about the tyrannulet, will likely help 
initiate conservation efforts to protect this Endangered species.

[cayugabirds-l] "Invasive Species of the Montezuma Wetlands Complex" virtual program 6/10

[Johnson, Alyssa]

Thursday, June 10

6:00 PM - 7:30 PM



June 6-12, 2021 is New York's Invasive Species Awareness Week (NYISAW). The 
mission is to promote knowledge and understanding of invasive species and the 
harm they can cause, by engaging the community in a wide range of activities 
offered across the state. Log on for a virtual presentation to learn about some 
of the invasive species that can be found within the Montezuma Wetlands 
Complex. The management of invasive species is an ongoing effort at both 
Montezuma National Wildlife Refuge and the NYS Department of Environmental 
Conservation Northern Montezuma Wildlife Management Area. Restoring the 
wetlands, forest, and grassland habitats are so important throughout the 
Complex to provide native food sources, shelter, and habitat for the migratory 
and breeding birds that use the Montezuma Wetlands Complex throughout the year.



-Fee: FREE

-After registering, you will receive the Zoom link information emailed to you.
