SUMMARY:Birdwatching Talk with Mike Lanzone at Leica Store Bellevue
DESCRIPTION:Join us at the Leica Store Bellevue on Friday\, August 26th at 7:00 pm for the discussion\, “Connecting Networks\, Wings & Wildlife For Conservation” with wildlife researcher\, Mike Lanzone. The evening will feature an in-depth conversation that focuses on the Internet of Wildlife- connecting technology and wildlife to answer the big conservation questions of today and tomorrow. \n\n\n\nMr. Lanzone will discuss how connectivity in our everyday lives is something we all have gotten used to\, both consciously and subconsciously. Whether it’s the watch on your wrist uploading data to the web and then providing you analyses on your phone\, or your phone triggering a connected device in your home when you cross an invisible geofence\, we use connected networks every day. Until now wildlife tracking devices have been designed to work within a single platform (GSM\, ARGOS\, etc.)\, where every device communicates directly with a specific network. The Internet of Wildlife (IoW) leverages each organism in the network to intelligently collect and send information from one organism to the next allowing researchers to collect biological data never before possible. For example\, with IoW small passerines transfer data to turtles\, otters to gulls\, whales to albatrosses; bigger animals can transmit to the internet and/or satellites so that the entire multi-species data stream ultimately reaches the researcher. This kind of intelligent data mesh network enables remote tracking of the smallest organisms. The IoW mesh network leverages existing network infrastructure\, thereby reducing the need to deploy costlier infrastructure specific to certain types of wildlife tag\, e.g.\, ICARUS. The CTT IoW will revolutionize how animal movement data are collected and how researchers and wildlife work together to answer big questions and ultimately help conserve species world-wide. \n\n\n\nAbout Speaker\, Michael Lanzone \n\n\n\nMichael Lanzone is the CEO of Cellular Tracking Technologies\, a company that develops high-end animal tracking devices for studies conducted across the globe. Over his career he has worked for various state and federal agencies and not-for-profit organizations across the country. He was director of the Bioacoustics and Biomonitoring Laboratory at Carnegie Museum of Natural History’s Powdermill Avian Research Center\, co-founder of the Eastern Golden Eagle Working group\, and was Assistant Coordinator for the 2nd Pennsylvania Breeding Bird Atlas. He has worked on many other research and banding projects across the world and has specialized in technological advancements and applied conservation in ornithology including bioacoustics and Golden Eagle ecology and conservation. \n\n\n\nRegister It’s Free!

SUMMARY:Morning Birdwatching Walk with Leica Store Bellevue at Magnuson Park
DESCRIPTION:Join Leica Birding Specialist\, Whitney Lanfranco\, Wildlife Researcher\, Mike Lanzone\, and Leica Store Bellevue for an early morning Birdwatching Walk in Warren G. Magnuson Park on Saturday\, August 27th\, 2022\, from 8:00 – 11:00 am. The walk will meet at 7:30 for check-in at the northern corner of Parking Lot E4 (47.681100\, -122.248143)\, which is the parking lot near the bathrooms and Swim Area at the Northeast end of Lakeshore Drive NE. \n\n\n\nLook for the Leica Store Bellevue shade shelter where we will have coffee\, pastries for all walkers. A limited number of loaner Leica Sport Optics equipment will be available for use during the bird walk on a first come\, first-served basis. A photo ID and credit card will be necessary for any loaner equipment. We look forward to seeing you there! \n\n\n\nAbout Wildlife Researcher\, Michael Lanzone \n\n\n\nMichael Lanzone is the CEO of Cellular Tracking Technologies\, a company that develops high-end animal tracking devices for studies conducted across the globe.

SUMMARY:On the Frontlines of Extinction: Saving the Rarest Hummingbirds
DESCRIPTION:Found only in the Americas\, hummingbirds surprise and delight us — yet many of these feisty birds are on the verge of disappearing forever\, including 39 that are globally threatened. Habitat loss is the biggest threat they face – particularly loss of forests and mountain shrublands. \n\n\n\nJoin our upcoming webinar on August 31 for a trip across our reserve network\, with stops in Brazil and Ecuador.You’ll learn about some of the rarest hummingbirds and what we’re doing do save them (and other species). \n\n\n\nABC and its partners are determined to prevent these extinctions by restoring and protecting habitat. Through a network of reserves across Latin America and the Caribbean\, we’re helping to protect 241 hummingbird species across more than 1.1 million acres. \n\n\n\nSpeakers on the webinar will include: \n\n\n\nAmy Upgren\, Director of Alliance for Zero Extinction and Key Biodiversity Areas Programs\, American Bird Conservancy;Bárbara Cavalcante\, Northeast Atlantic Forest Project Coordinator\, SAVE Brasil;José León\, Research Coordinator\, Fundación Jocotoco.\n\n\n\nWHAT: On the Frontlines of Extinction: Saving the Rarest Hummingbirds \n\n\n\nWHEN: Thursday\, August 31 at 6:00 PM EDT \n\n\n\nWHERE: Zoom (link provided upon registration) \n\n\n\nI hope you join us! If you can’t make it\, you can still RSVP to get the recording sent directly to you after the event. \n\n\n\nSincerely\, \n\n\n\nJordan E. Rutter \n\n\n\nDirector of Public Relations \n\n\n\nAmerican Bird Conservancy
