Join us or the first meeting of the new "birding year" Thursday, September 4, 2025, at 7 p.m. Our guest speakers will be Nina Karnovsky and Students – Sagehen Studies of Oyster Catchers, Pelicans, Puffins, and Terns!
Come learn about the summer research adventures of Pomona College students (Sagehens) in Prof. Nina Karnovsky’s lab! Anji will share her studies of American Oystercatchers and Black Skimmers in North Carolina. Max will describe how he and the Common Terns weathered a storm in the Gulf of Maine. Thomas will present his kayak surveys of tagged pelicans here in Southern California. Mark will take you to Seal Island, Maine, where he studied Atlantic Puffins, Black Guillemots, Razorbills, and Leach’s Storm-Petrels—and will share photos of the unexpected birds he discovered there.
Nina Karnovsky is the Willard George Halstead Zoology Professor at Pomona College where she teaches (as she puts it) “many different flavors of ecology” but really enjoys her Avian Ecology class.
Join us at 7 pm for a bird identification lesson, refreshments, announcements, door prizes and our guest speakers!
