[nysbirds-l] "Birding Southeast Arizona" by Trevor Ambrico - North Shore Audubon presentation - Tues, Jan 25, 7pm

2022-01-19 Thread Nancy Tognan 
The next North Shore Audubon Society (NSAS) general meeting will be held via 
Zoom on Tuesday, January 25, 2022, at 7pm.

Our presentation will be "Trip Report: Southeast Arizona - A Relatively New 
Birder's First Venture out of New York” by Trevor Ambrico.
Free admission.  
All are invited - you do not need to be a NSAS member to attend.

>From Trevor:
 This presentation is going to take the form of a trip report of my two 
week solo birding trip across southeast Arizona in April to May of 2021. As the 
title suggests, this was my first major foray into birding outside of New York 
State. I started in Tucson, AZ and made my way around the southeast corner of 
the state, spending 2-3 days birding in each of the following locations: 
Tucson/Mt. Lemmon, Madera Canyon/ Tubac, AZ, Lake Patagonia, Sierra Vista, 
AZ/Huachaca Mountain Range, and Portal, AZ /Chiricahua Mountain Range. The 
presentation is going to have an emphasis on life-birds (114 total!), 
photographs, rarities (Northern Jacana, Rose-throated Becard, Violet-crowned 
Hummingbird, Lucifer Hummingbird), and cool finds (possibly first ever recorded 
Black-throated Sparrow at the peak of Mt. Lemmon - way out of altitude range, 
and a close encounter with a Mexican Spotted Owl). 

Bio - Trevor Ambrico is a relatively new birder who first started in December 
of 2018 after spotting an unusual woodpecker in his backyard, which turned out 
to be a Yellow-bellied Sapsucker. This encounter sparked a growing interest in 
learning, experiencing, and respectfully photographing avian habitats, 
behavior, and biodiversity. He currently works as a Physician Assistant in the 
field of Cardiothoracic Surgery and Cardiac Critical Care at Northwell Health. 
He holds a Master's Degree in Physician Assistant Studies, and Bachelor's 
Degree in Health Sciences (Touro College, 2019), as well as a Bachelor's Degree 
in Biology (Stony Brook University, 2014). His other interests include Mountain 
Biking, Road Cycling, Photography, and Vegetable Gardening.
