Banding Together for the Birds: The Science of Bird Banding and its Role in Avian Conservation
Lindsay Herlihy (Black Mountain Banding Station)
Bird banding is one of the most widely used strategies for scientists to study populations of wild birds. But what exactly is bird banding, and how does it work? Biologist Lindsay Herlihy will explain the practice, history, and applications of bird banding, and share stories (with lots of photos!) of various local research efforts which rely on banding to study and conserve New England birds.
Held on Tuesdays, 7:00–8:15 pm
Join us for our Newfound Nature Series (the new name for our beloved Red Barn Speaker Series) on Tuesday evenings. The series is now held at Grey Rocks and co-hosted by the Newfound Lake Region Association (NLRA). Registration is not necessary – just come and join us for an evening’s entertainment!
