- **Event Name**: Australia’s Birds, Landscapes, & Culture with Dan Casey
- **Event Start and End Date**: Mon, 12 Jan, 2026 at 07:00 pm
- **Event Description**: Join Dan Casey at our January 12 general meeting, where he will discuss the trip he and his wife, Susannah, took to Melbourne and other areas in Victoria, Australia’s southeastern-most mainland state. While the majority of the talk will cover birds found in the area (think parrots!), Dan will also discuss the landscape, culture, and some of the unique mammals (including humans) encountered along the way. Habitats visited include everything from city parks to coastal scrub and estuaries, tree fern and eucalyptus forests, dry scrublands, and sky islands. And what visit would be complete without a trip to the best hotspot in Victoria, the Western Treatment Plant?

Dan has been a stalwart of Flathead Audubon and the Montana birding community for more than four decades. A co-author of “Birds of Montana,” he retired from a career in bird conservation in 2020 that included stints with Montana Fish, Wildlife &amp; Parks, American Bird Conservancy, and the Northern Great Plains Joint Venture. Dan and Susannah live in Somers.

For those coming to the meeting on January 12, we’ll meet in Room 26 of the Gateway Mall (United Way building) at 7pm. This room is on the east side of the building along Glenwood Drive in Kalispell. Look for our banner outside.

For those joining virtually, when you use the link, you will eventually be let into a “waiting room” where you will then be added to the meeting by the host. Please sign in with your name when you enter the room so we know to admit you. You will be muted when you first join the meeting. You can use your computer’s microphone and speakers (most computers have both), and this is the preferred way to join. You can also get an audio connection to the meeting without the Zoom visual capability by using your phone.
