SUMMARY:NH Butterfly Monitoring Trainings - May 18
DESCRIPTION:Join us as we continue to explore NH’s Butterflies through field trainings. \nNew Hampshire Audubon is partnering with New Hampshire Fish and Game (NHFG) to collect long-term data on butterflies in the Concord region and beyond. Sightings will provide valuable data on how species ranges are changing over time. Your data will help support butterfly conservation across the state. \nNHFG and partners will go in the field to learn more about the butterflies that call New Hampshire home. Our series of online training sessions wrapped up and now we will spend time in the field learning how to identify the butterflies in a diversity of habitats. All are welcome for this amazing opportunity to learn and participate in butterfly conservation. Field training sessions in and around Concord are scheduled for the following dates: \nMay 18 from 11am – 1pm \nJoin Mike Thomas\, retired entomologist and extraordinary butterfly enthusiast as we explore the habitat in and around the NH Audubon McLane Center in Concord\, NH. \nDuring the field trainings you will receive additional information about the Butterfly Surveys that will take place at 6 locations across the state. The field sessions will provide you with an eye-opening experience to connect with species you may not have noticed in the past. No matter what your skill level is\, you are welcome to join us. Together we can help track New Hampshire’s butterflies and make a difference in their conservation. \nField training sessions in and around Concord are scheduled for the following dates: May 18\, June 3\, and June 15. Check the calendar to sign up for individual dates. \n* If sign ups are full and you would like to be on a wait list\, please contact Diane De Luca.

SUMMARY:Resilient Raptors Webinar
DESCRIPTION:NEW DATE! \nCourtship & Construction  \nBird nests are as unique to a species as their plumage\, with nesting materials ranging from grasses and twigs to spit\, mud\, and even metal wire. Some species construct their nests together\, while others spend significant energy independently creating a nest in an effort to attract a mate. Let’s explore some truly astounding avian architects before examining the construction and maintenance behind the Bald Eagle’s impressive egg abode and their deep commitment to the territory where they choose to place it. If you think the housing market is tough in NH\, wait until you see what real estate is like from a Bald Eagle’s perspective!  \nTo register for the webinar please click the registration link below: \nhttps://us02web.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_o4gPZ4ZKRCuimappaW7IIQ \nOnce you have registered\, you will receive a confirmation email.

SUMMARY:A Guide to Restoring the Little Things that Run the World
DESCRIPTION:A Guide to Restoring the Little Things that Run the World \nThursday\, October  27: 7-8:15pm \nCost: Free \nRegistration Link \nDoug Tallamy\, T. A. Baker Professor of Agriculture in the Department of Entomology and Wildlife Ecology at the University of Delaware. He is the author of numerous publications and books on understanding the ways insects interact with plants and how such interactions determine the diversity of animal communities. His books include Bringing Nature Home\, Nature’s Best Hope and The Nature of Oaks. Doug’s Homegrown National Park initiative is transforming how we think and act on maintaining biodiversity in our world. \nJoin Doug Tallamy as he shares how we can all make a difference. A recent UN report predicts that as many as 1 million species will disappear from planet earth because of human activities. Many of these are insects and nearly all species at risk rely on insects. Insects have already declined 45% since 1974. The most alarming part of this statistic is that we don’t seem to care\, despite the fact that a world without insects is a world without humans! So how do we create beautiful landscapes brimming with life; landscapes that support the pollinators\, herbivores\, detritivores\, predators and parasitoids that run the ecosystems we depend on? Tallamy will remind us of the many essential roles insects play\, and describe the simple changes we must make in our landscapes and our attitudes to keep insects on the ground\, in the air and yes\, on our plants. \nNew Hampshire Audubon Pollinator Speaker Series: Celebrating and Engaging in Pollinator Conservation \n  \nJoin New Hampshire Audubon for our 2022 Pollinator Webinar series as we celebrate Pollinator Conservation. \nThis series seeks to inspire involvement and engagement in pollinator conservation through close focus programs that will allow participants to gain a deeper understanding and knowledge of pollinators and the plants they depend on.

SUMMARY:Big Day and The State of NH's Birds
DESCRIPTION:Join us on Zoom for a discussion on The State of NH’s Birds and an introduction to Big Day by Dr. Pamela Hunt\, from 7-8pm on Thursday\, May 12\, 2022. Register below to receive the zoom link a few days prior to the event. Registration closes at 6:30pm on May 12.\n \nIn the last 50 years\, scientists estimate that North America has lost roughly 3 billion birds\, meaning that there are only three quarters as many birds around as there used to be. New Hampshire Audubon has been tracking bird populations for almost as long\, and in our “State of the Birds” report we present a summary of how birds are doing here in the Granite State. Almost 300 species occur regularly here\, and this report outlines general population trends\, major threats facing birds and their habitats\, and some of the conservation strategies that might help them recover. The bad news is that birds are declining here as well. The good news is that there are things we can do about it. \nRegister for the talk here\, and receive the zoom link.

SUMMARY:Hummingbirds are Energy Ninjas\, Day and Night
DESCRIPTION:Pollinator Series: Wednesday\, April 27: 7pm – 8:15pm \nRegistration Link \nJoin Anusha Shankar\, a Rose Postdoctoral Fellow at the Cornell Lab of Ornithology\, and a National Geographic Explorer and Young Leader who has been studying hummingbirds and their amazing adaptations. \nHummingbirds live fast. They have among the highest metabolic rates of all vertebrates\, and must eat constantly to stay alive. Their existence is closely tied to the availability of their food resources – nectar plants and insects. What do hummingbirds do when they can’t see their food plants at night or eat? Do they starve\, or perhaps… go into a hibernation-like state? Find out some of the surprising nightlife of hummingbirds! \nBio: Anusha Shankar studies hummingbirds as a Rose Postdoctoral Fellow at the Cornell Lab of Ornithology. She is fascinated by hummingbirds’ ability to use a hibernation-like state called torpor to save energy at night. She is investigating how they can get cold (50°F) and rewarm safely every night\, without damaging organs like their hearts and brains. During her PhD\, Anusha captured hummingbird nightlife with infrared video\, and before that tracked king cobras and studied giant birds—hornbills—in India. Anusha is also a National Geographic Explorer and Young Leader and loves mentoring students\, dancing salsa\, bachata\, and swing\, and reading fiction. \nNew Hampshire Audubon Pollinator Speaker Series: Celebrating and Engaging in Pollinator Conservation \nJoin New Hampshire Audubon for our 2022 Pollinator Webinar series as we celebrate Pollinator Conservation.
