Join the NH Audubon Seacoast Chapter for their November in-person program: “Something Wild” Stories

New Hampshire Public Radio’s (NHPR) “Something Wild” has been exploring the intricacies of nature in NH for 25 years! Chris Martin and Dave Anderson have teamed up as the show’s co-hosts for the past 15 years. Together, in short radio essays, these two have taken listeners to ‘see’ some of the state’s most interesting birds, explored many unique Granite State habitats and asked lots of local nature experts how they were first bitten by the nature bug. Join us for a peek behind the recording studio curtain. It’s sure to be an evening filled with several true stories and lots of tall tales!

Chris Martin is a Senior Biologist with NH Audubon. He has coordinated various raptor monitoring and management projects for Audubon for over 33 years, working with volunteers and with state and federal partners to aid the recovery of Bald Eagles, Peregrine Falcons, Northern Harriers and Ospreys. He has also been Audubon’s voice on NHPR’s Something Wild since 2009. Chris started out wanting to be a forester, but was always distracted by birds and eventually they became the focus of his professional career.

Dave Anderson is Senior Director of Education for the Society for the Protection of NH Forests. He joined the Forest Society in 1990. He is responsible for design, development and delivery of conservation education programs. He is a well-known naturalist, guiding field trips on Forest Society properties and teaching about forest ecology, wildlife habitats and land conservation. Anderson is a co-author of the “Forest Journal” column in the statewide NH Sunday News. He has co-hosted NHPR’s Something Wild since 2008. He knows his birds well, but knows his trees even better!
