SUMMARY:Digging into Native New Hampshire
DESCRIPTION:2023 Red Barn Series\, Newfound Audubon\nNo registration necessary – just come and join us! \nSpeaker: Dr. Robert Goodby\, Professor of Anthropology\, Franklin Pierce University \nAbenaki history has been reduced to near-invisibility as a result of conquest\, a conquering culture that placed little value on the Indian experience\, and a strategy of self-preservation that required many Abenaki to go “underground\,” concealing their true identities for generations to avoid discrimination and persecution. Robert Goodby reveals archaeological evidence that shows their deep presence here\, inches below the earth’s surface. \nThis event is made possible by a grant from New Hampshire Humanities. \nPlease park across the street at Ash Cottage. Download a map here. Note that this is now a private residence and there is no bathroom access. \nSpecial thanks to our 2023 Red Barn Series sponsors\, John S. Jordan Design PLLC\, the Hebron Conservation Commission; and to our co-host\, the Newfound Lake Region Association.

SUMMARY:Why Ice Storms Aren’t Cool: Forest Response to Catastrophic Events
DESCRIPTION:2023 Red Barn Series\, Newfound Audubon\nNo registration necessary – just come and join us! \nSpeaker: Dr. Lindsey Rustad\, USDA Northeast Climate Hub \nIce storms are a common disturbance in north temperate and boreal forests worldwide. In the United States\, they account for roughly 60% of winter storm losses with damage to property; closures of roads\, schools and businesses; and accidents and loss of life. Current models suggest that ice storms may become more frequent and more severe as a result of climate change\, but studying their impact is difficult since the storms are so hard to predict. To better understand ice storms\, Hubbard Brook Experimental Forest created controlled ice storm experiments during the winters of 2016 and 2017. The experimental ‘storms’ changed the forest canopy and soil conditions giving the scientific community\, land managers and community members greater insight on the impacts of these powerful\, frightening\, and curiously aesthetic extreme winter weather events in northern hardwood forests. \nDr. Lindsey Rustad is the Director of the USDA Northeast Climate Hub\, providing expertise on the impacts of global change on northeastern forests. She is also a Research Ecologist for the USDA Forest Service Center for Research on Ecosystem Change in Durham\, NH. Her areas of expertise include biogeochemistry\, global change impacts\, and advanced environmental sensor systems. Her current interests include implementation of cybertechnology in forests across the northeastern United States and integration of Arts and Science at long term ecological field stations. \nPlease park across the street at Ash Cottage.

SUMMARY:The Iconic Common Loon
DESCRIPTION:2023 Red Barn Series\, Newfound Audubon\nNo registration necessary – just come and join us! \nSpeaker: Caroline Hughes\, Loon Preservation Committee \nFor many\, the haunting call of the loon is an important part of the New Hampshire lake experience. Often seen as a symbol of the northern wilderness\, loons are a beloved fixture on New Hampshire lakes\, and many lake goers enjoy watching them as they raise their young. However\, the breeding season can be a vulnerable time for loons—they face many threats\, both natural and human-caused\, while on our lakes. This presentation by Caroline Hughes of the Loon Preservation Committee (LPC) will focus on the biology and life history of loons\, the threats that loons face\, and the work that the LPC and their volunteers have performed since 1975 to help recover New Hampshire’s threatened loon population. \nCaroline Hughes has a Bachelor’s in Environmental Science from the College of the Holy Cross. After interning and working for a number of conservation organizations\, including the Squam Lakes Association and Blue Ocean Society for Marine Conservation\, she joined the Loon Preservation Committee where she is now the Volunteer & Outreach Biologist. \nPlease park across the street at Ash Cottage.

SUMMARY:Red Barn Speaker Series - Entomology for the Masses: Introducing the Insects
DESCRIPTION:2024 Red Barn Series\, Newfound Audubon\nNo registration necessary – just come and join us! \nSpeaker: Dr. Pam Hunt\, NH Audubon \nThis talk is a celebration of everything with six legs. Insects are by far the most abundant and diverse group of organisms on earth\, with by some estimates well over a million species – or slightly over half of ALL species known to live on our planet. And yet what do we REALLY know about these critters? Some of the things insects do are stranger than fiction\, but rest assured that they are doing it all the time right under our noses. For example\, did you know that male dragonflies can scoop sperm from a previous male out of females’ reproductive organs? Or that some wasps lay eggs inside living caterpillars\, and the wasp larvae eat the caterpillar alive from the inside out? And then there are the more familiar stories involving metamorphosis\, pollination\, and mimicry. Join us to learn some of the basics of insect biology\, including an overview of the major groups. \nPlease park across the street at Ash Cottage. Download a map here. Note that this is now a private residence and there is no bathroom access. \nThank you to our generous sponsors: John S. Jordan Design PLLC and the Hebron Conservation Committee. \nPhoto: Six-spotted Tiger Beetle by Pam Hunt.

SUMMARY:Red Barn Speaker Series - Story Cores: Tales Trees Tell in a Changing New England Landscape
DESCRIPTION:2024 Red Barn Series\, Newfound Audubon\nNo registration necessary – just come and join us! \nSpeaker: Dr. Shelly Rayback\, University of Vermont \nIn their rings\, trees record and store information that reveal to us important details about their environment and our landscapes over decades to centuries. In New England\, trees such as eastern hemlock and red spruce have recorded information about changing temperature and rainfall since the 1500s. Tree rings also tell us how trees and forests have responded to and recovered from problems like acid rain and will respond to rising greenhouse gases. Come learn more about these story cores which includes trees that were sampled at Paradise Point! \nPlease park across the street at Ash Cottage. Download a map here.

SUMMARY:Red Barn Speaker Series - Nature In Focus: Images of Flora\, Fauna and Landscapes of New England
DESCRIPTION:2024 Red Barn Series\, Newfound Audubon\nNo registration necessary – just come and join us! \nSpeaker: Bob Fleck\, Author/Photographer \n“In all things of Nature\, there is something of the marvelous.” ~ Aristotle \nThe selection of photographic images to be presented in this lecture portray the artist’s interpretation of Aristotle’s ancient words. Curated from photographs taken by Bob Fleck over the past decade\, the overarching theme of the lecture is “finding the marvelous” available to us to witness in the natural world and bringing it into focus via photography and patience (plus a little luck!). We need not travel beyond New Hampshire and New England to be in awe. \nAs we ponder the images presented\, we will search for the details\, the “marvelous”\, the overall beauty that abounds in nature. Many instances presented by the photographer were but a moment in time\, yet a memory forever. The presentation represents such a small fraction of what is discoverable\, if we only take the time to look and see (and sometimes lucky enough to capture) “something of the marvelous”. Bob will also discuss some of his equipment and how some of the images were captured. Questions are encouraged throughout the session. \nMany of the images from his book\, “Seasons At A New England Bog – A Photographic Essay”\, as well as many other examples of the “marvels” of nature will be shared during the lecture/discussion. \nA musical montage of pages from the book will start shortly prior to the main presentation as people are arriving. Copies of the book will be available for purchase and inscribing by Bob. \nPlease park across the street at Ash Cottage. Download a map here. Note that this is now a private residence and there is no bathroom access. \nThank you to our generous sponsors: John S. Jordan Design PLLC and the Hebron Conservation Committee. \nPhoto: Pink Lady’s Slippers by Bob Fleck.
