SUMMARY:Native Predatory Wasps: Their Role as Pollinators and Beneficial Insects
DESCRIPTION:Native bees and predatory wasps share the same lineage and also share many behaviors and habitat requirements. Predatory wasps feed their offspring invertebrates (insects and spiders) and bees diverged from this carnivorous diet to feed their offspring plant-based food (pollen and nectar). Flower-rich landscapes provide critical habitat for both adult bees and wasps because they each consume flower nectar; in addition\, wasps need diverse\, flower-rich landscapes to hunt for their prey. Heather will highlight many amazing natural history and biology facts about native wasps illustrating their nesting habitat\, prey specificity\, and the ecosystems services they provide—pest insect population control and pollination. \nRegister for this free webinar through Zoom. \n \nThis webinar is part of the year-long Exploring Connections to and Stewardship of the Natural World talks. This series is supported by a grant through the NH Humanities Council and aims to provide a public and personal space for the examination of environmental ethics\, fostering a deeper understanding of\, appreciation for\, and care of\, our natural world. Programs are free to the public\, and streamed via Zoom\, YouTube\, and Facebook Live.  \nFor more information and to see the entire slate of talks\, visit our series webpage. \nSpeaker Bio: \nHeather Holm is a biologist\, pollinator conservationist\, and award-winning author. In addition to assisting with native bee research projects\, she informs and educates audiences nationwide\, through her writing and many presentations\, about the fascinating world of native pollinators and beneficial insects\, and the native plant communities that support them. Her first book\, Pollinators of Native Plants\, was published in 2014\, and her second book\, Bees\, published in 2017\, has won six book awards including the 2018 American Horticultural Society Book Award. Her forthcoming book\, Wasps\, will be available in January 2021. Heather’s expertise includes the interactions between native pollinators and native plants\, and the natural history and biology of native bees and predatory wasps occurring in the Upper Midwest and Northeast. \n

SUMMARY:Nighthawk Watch Volunteer Training
DESCRIPTION:It’s nearly time for the first Common Nighthawks to return. These insect-eating birds were once common in cities throughout New Hampshire\, but they are now endangered in the state. Volunteers have been helping NH Audubon and the Harris Center track nesting nighthawks since 2007\, primarily in Concord\, Keene\, and the Ossipee pine barrens. Volunteers watch at specific sites from 8:00 – 9:30 pm recording any nighthawk activity. If you are interested in volunteering\, there will be an online training on June 3 from 5:30 to 6:30 p.m. via Zoom. We will provide an introduction to nighthawk identification and instructions for nighthawk watching. Closed captioning will be available. To get the login details\, please register here. Contact Becky Suomala (rsuomala@nhaudubon.org) if you have questions regarding volunteering. \nCommon Nighthawk female nesting on a stone rooftop.

SUMMARY:Flowering Trees and Shrubs for Pollinators
DESCRIPTION:When gardeners think of designing a landscape for pollinators\, they may imagine a colorful bed of herbaceous flowers. However\, flowering trees and shrubs are essential parts of the habitat required to support a wide variety of pollinators and other wildlife species. Not only do they provide food\, but they also offer year-round shelter and nesting places. In this presentation you’ll learn about blooming trees and shrubs that provide both beauty and important habitat in the garden. \nRegister for this free webinar through Zoom. \n \nThis webinar is part of the year-long Exploring Connections to and Stewardship of the Natural World talks. This series is supported by a grant through the NH Humanities Council and aims to provide a public and personal space for the examination of environmental ethics\, fostering a deeper understanding of\, appreciation for\, and care of\, our natural world.

She provides research-based programming and technical assistance to green-industry businesses throughout the state\, including nursery\, garden center\, and landscape operations\, while also serving the broader agricultural community of Hillsborough County. Emma also shares her expertise regularly on WMUR’s Grow it Green gardening feature and through her weekly gardening column\, as well as through workshops\, courses\, and new programs. \n

SUMMARY:The American Prairie Reserve
DESCRIPTION:New Hampshire Audubon Seacoast Chapter \nWednesday May 12\, 2021 7:30 pm Eastern Time (US and Canada) Zoom Program: The American Prairie Reserve \nBetsy Robinson and Steve Gehman\, who have had careers as wildlife biologists and naturalist guides\, will present an introduction to the ongoing effort to create a 3 million acre prairie reserve in central Montana. They will discuss some of the unique characteristics of the prairie ecosystem and will feature some of their favorite birds and experiences from their time documenting bird species presence and abundance on the Reserve. Other topics include the value of prairie dogs and the presence of native large mammals and carnivores\, and the importance of establishing a large herd of free-ranging bison. \nBio: Betsy and Steve both grew up in the East\, followed different paths westward\, and then pursued careers as wildlife biologists and naturalist guides. They met while working for National Audubon’s Camp in The West at Dubois\, Wyoming. They later married and founded Wild Things Unlimited\, a non-profit organization that they ran for 22 years. Operating out of Bozeman\, Montana\, they conducted studies of wolverines\, Canada lynx and grizzly bears in the northern Rocky Mountains\, as well as prairie birds in central Montana. Between 2005 and 2013\, Betsy and Steve spent parts of four summers documenting bird species presence and abundance on the American Prairie Reserve. They moved to New Hampshire in 2019 and live in Hillsborough with their two golden retrievers. \nAll are welcome to attend our Wednesday May 12\, 2021 program via Zoom. The Zoom program Meeting begins at 7:30 PM\, but feel free to sign on early after 7 pm to socialize. You may need to download Zoom to attend the program. \nPlease register in advance for this meeting. You can register right up through the start time. \nAfter registering\, you will receive a confirmation email containing information about joining the meeting. \nFor more information see our website. Cancellations will be announced on the programs page. \nThe Seacoast Chapter of NH Audubon thanks AARP New Hampshire for their sponsorship. \nPhotos: Ferruginous Hawk; American Prairie Reserve\, by Steven Gehman.

SUMMARY:Birdathon
DESCRIPTION:May 8\, 2021 (with May 9 as a weather option) \nWe encourage folks to get outside and go birding on SATURDAY\, MAY 8 and report what you find to NH Audubon. As before\, we encourage staying close to home\, whether in your yard\, neighborhood\, or town\, although more broad-ranging expeditions are also welcome. By registering\, you sign up for our Birdathon mailing list to receive more information\, including an online species list to let us know what you saw. \nCan we beat 160 species? Unless it snows again I suspect we can! And of course we’re retaining the fundraising component. Feel free to donate online and encourage your friends and family to do the same. \nVisit the webpage for full details\, registration and video links.
