 The fall Statesboro meeting featured birding in Bulloch County, the
Savannah-Ogeechee Canal State Historical Site and coverage of Savannah
National Wildlife Refuge. The Bulloch County field trip provided exposure to the sod
farms directly south of the campus of Georgia Southern University. The Center for Wildlife Education and Lamar Q. Ball Raptor
Center staff provided a program with live birds and other critters on Friday night and a squirrel
hunt with Harris Hawks on Saturday morning. Also on Friday night, Scott Somershoe provided information
about his interesting research concerning stopover migrants at the Savannah
NWR. The Saturday evening program was
presented by Chan Robbins describing his recent trip to Antarctica. Many meeting participants had the enjoyable
opportunity to bird and talk with Robbins on the fieldtrips. |
