The Cayuga Bird Club will be meeting on Monday, October 12, at 7:30 at the Cornell Lab of Ornithology with cookies and conversation at 7:15. Our speaker will be Bill Evans, Director of Old Bird Inc., a US nonprofit focused on nocturnal bird migration research and education. His presentation is entitled, "The impact of wind energy on birds in our region: fact versus fiction".
Bill will present a synopsis of his work for wind developers and groups concerned about wind power in Ontario and New York. He will draw from his involvement with the Black Oak, Wolfe Island, Ostrander Point, Galloo Island, Maple Ridge, and Cape Vincent wind projects, and portray the challenge of studying and mitigating impacts to birds from these and future wind energy projects in our region. Members are invited to dinner with Bill before the meeting at 5:30 at Aladdin's in Collegetown . Please RSVP by noon Monday to cl...@juno.com so reservations can be made.
