SUMMARY:Duwamish Waterway
DESCRIPTION:Leader: Barbara Petersen \n\n\n\nTukwila Community Center \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nJoin Barbara for a morning exploration of birding spots near the Duwamish River. You will want to return to these places often in the spring when they can be quite busy with bird activity. Common sightings include Osprey\, Bald Eagle\, Green Heron\, Belted Kingfisher\, Western Tanager\, even Bullock’s Oriole if the timing is right. We’ll visit North Wind’s Weir\, Cecil Moses Park\, Duwamish Hill Preserve\, Duwamish Gardens and the river path at Tukwila Community Center. \n\n\n\nMeet at the Tukwila Community Center in front of the main entrance by 8:30 a.m. and will finish there about 12:30 p.m. We’ll walk less than a half a mile on paved trails. Bring drinks\, snacks\, binoculars\, scopes and cameras as needed to enhance this half day outing. We’ll sharpen our spotting skills as a few of these spots have a lot of traffic noise. To sign up\, email Barbara at bpbatfan@aol.com or call / text 253-389-3204 and leave a message.

SUMMARY:In Search of Meadowlarks: Birds\, Farms\, and Food in Harmony with the Land
DESCRIPTION:by John Marzluff \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAs a wildlife scientist and birder\, I think about our relationship with\, and effects on\, nature. As I searched for meadowlarks and other open country birds among farms and ranches\, I learned how these species flee the plow and how many farmers adjust their actions to lessen this exodus. I birded and talked with farmers on their lands from Nebraska to California to Costa Rica. Here I bring news to you from these farms that show how some birds are extirpated while others evolve to live among the crops we need for our own sustenance. I focus on the actions of many farmers that coexist with nature because “it is the right thing to do.” You’ll learn about wine producers that welcome barn owls to their vineyards to help control rodents\, organic producers that fallow some land each year to the benefit of yellowthroats\, ranchers that employ intensive\, rotational grazing to coexist with predators and trout\, and a rancher that traded cows for tourists. One of humanity’s grand challenges is to conserve nature while providing for a growing and increasing affluent population. The lessons I’ve learned from agrarians and the scientific literature suggests strategies that we can each employ to help meet this challenge. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nJohn Marzluff is James W. Ridgeway Professor of Wildlife Science at the University of Washington. His graduate (Northern Arizona University) and initial post-doctoral (University of Vermont) research focused on the social behavior and ecology of jays and ravens. He continues this theme investigating the intriguing behavior of crows\, ravens\, and jays. His current research focuses on the interactions of ravens and wolves in Yellowstone. He teaches Ornithology\, Governance and Conservation of Rare Species\, Field Research in Yellowstone\, and Natural and Cultural History of Costa Rica. \n\n\n\nDr. Marzluff has mentored over 40 graduate students and authored over 170 scientific papers on various aspects of bird behavior and wildlife management. He is a member of the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service’s Recovery Team for the critically endangered Mariana Crow\, a former member of the Washington Biodiversity Council\, a Fellow of the American Ornithologist’s Union\, a Fellow of the American Association for the Advancement of Science\, and a National Geographic Explorer. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nProfessor Marzluff has written six books and edited several others. His Welcome to Subirdia (2014 Yale) discovers that moderately settled lands host a splendid array of biological diversity and suggests ways in which people can steward these riches to benefit birds and themselves.  \n\n\n\nHis most recent In Search of Meadowlarks (2020 Yale) connects our agriculture and diets to the conservation of birds and other wildlife. Copies will be available at the meeting for $20\, \n\n\n\nThis will be a hybird meeting.  Come in person or join us with Zoom. \n\n\n\nDan Streiffert is inviting you to a scheduled Zoom meeting. \n\n\n\nTopic: In Search of Meadowlarks: Birds\, Farms\, and Food in Harmony with the LandTime: Apr 17\, 2023 06:30 PM Pacific Time (US and Canada) \n\n\n\nJoin Zoom Meetinghttps://us06web.zoom.us/j/85745489671?pwd=ekhFMlF3aS8yNTNacnV2Tm5hRndwUT09 \n\n\n\nMeeting ID: 857 4548 9671Passcode: 440994One tap mobile+12532158782\,\,85745489671#\,\,\,\,440994# US (Tacoma) +12532050468\,\,85745489671#\,\,\,\,440994# US \n\n\n\nDial by your location+1 253 215 8782 US (Tacoma)+1 253 205 0468 US+1 719 359 4580 US+1 346 248 7799 US (Houston)+1 408 638 0968 US (San Jose)+1 669 444 9171 US+1 669 900 6833 US (San Jose)+1 386 347 5053 US+1 507 473 4847 US+1 564 217 2000 US+1 646 876 9923 US (New York)+1 646 931 3860 US+1 689 278 1000 US+1 301 715 8592 US (Washington DC)+1 305 224 1968 US+1 309 205 3325 US+1 312 626 6799 US (Chicago)+1 360 209 5623 USMeeting ID: 857 4548 9671Passcode: 440994Find your local number: https://us06web.zoom.us/u/kc3WUqTsLj
