SUMMARY:The State of New Hampshire’s Birds
DESCRIPTION:Red Barn Series\, Newfound Audubon\nNo registration necessary – just come and join us! \nSpeaker: Dr. Pamela Hunt\, Senior Biologist- Avian Conservation\, NH Audubon \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. \nPlease park across the street at Ash Cottage. Download a map here. \nPam Hunt has been interested in birds since the tender age of 12\, when an uncle took her to Brigantine National Wildlife Refuge in NJ. She went on to earn a B.S. in biology from Cornell University\, M.A. in zoology from the University of Montana\, and a Ph.D. from Dartmouth College in 1995. Pam came to NH Audubon in 2000 after five years as adjunct faculty at Colby-Sawyer College in New London. In her current position as Avian Conservation Biologist\, she works closely with NH Fish and Game to coordinate and prioritize bird research and monitoring in the state\, and also authored NH’s “State of the Birds” report. Specific areas of interest include habitat use by early successional birds (particularly whip-poor-wills)\, conservation of aerial insectivores (e.g.\, swifts and swallows)\, and the effects of events outside the breeding season on long-distance migrants. Pam also coordinated the “NH Dragonfly Survey\,” a five-year project that mapped distributions of these insects throughout the state\, and remains active in the dragonfly field. \nSpecial thanks to our series sponsor:

SUMMARY:Beecology: a Citizen Scientist Helping Pollinators
DESCRIPTION:Dr. Gegear will update participants on the decline of wild pollinators and the importance of collecting critical ecological information that is needed to develop effective conservation and restoration strategies for threatened pollinator species. The Beecology project was developed to recruit citizen scientists from across the region to digitally collect and submit ecological data on native pollinators. You will learn and practice data collection using the smartphone and web apps developed through this project. Participants will have the chance to use online visualization tools to collect data important for improving the quality of native pollinator habitats. \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: \nRobert J. Gegear is a Professor in the Department of Biology at UMASS Dartmouth and Director of the New England Beecology Project\, a citizen science-based effort to rapidly collect large amounts of ecological data on native pollination networks in New England.  He has been studying the neuroecology and conservation of pollinator-plant systems for over 20 and has over 40 publications in peer-reviewed scientific journals\, books\, and the popular press.  In recognition of his ongoing efforts to protect and restore native biodiversity in Massachusetts\, Dr. Gegear was awarded the 2018 Regional Impact Award by the New England Wildflower Society. \n

SUMMARY:Native BATS of New Hampshire
DESCRIPTION:Red Barn Series\, Newfound Audubon\nNo registration necessary – just come and join us! \nSpeaker: Dr. Katherine York\, Associate Professor of Biology and Chair\, Dept. of Biological Sciences\, Southern New Hampshire University \nThis talk focuses on identifying the eight native species of bats in New Hampshire\, acoustic and stationary monitoring techniques\, and the current status of White nose syndrome among bats in the U.S. \nPlease park across the street at Ash Cottage. Download a map here. \nI have worked with animals all my life\, first earning a B.S. in Animal Science and working as a zookeeper and a vet tech\, before receiving my M.Ed. in Secondary Biology Education from UNH. I have always wanted to teach people about animals\, and I think the way we treat animals says a lot about how we ultimately treat the whole Earth. During my Ph.D. program in Natural Resources at UNH\, I focused on environmental ethics and on our human relationship with both animals and the Earth. I have studied bats in New Hampshire for the last few years\, and now monitor the abundance and distribution of bat species in the state using acoustic and stationary techniques. White nose syndrome has devastated many of our native bat populations\, so it is especially important to keep an eye on their numbers and relative health\, as we watch this unfortunate disease progression across North America. \nSpecial thanks to our series sponsor:

SUMMARY:Cancelled: Appreciating our Nocturnal Pollinators
DESCRIPTION:**This program has been cancelled.** \nJoin us during Pollinator Week to learn more about the mysterious and diverse world of moths! They’re our (mostly) nocturnal neighbors that remain largely unseen but play a very important role in our gardens\, while supporting populations of native bird and bat species across the Northeast. Moth diversity has long been considered an indicator of habitat quality and emphasizes the importance of using various native plant\, shrub and tree species in our cultivated landscapes and embracing habitat heterogeneity when making land use decisions. \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: \nSarah Shearer is a graduate student at Antioch University New England (Keene\, NH). Sarah is a MS candidate in the Environmental Studies program with a concentration in Conservation Biology. Endlessly curious with a special affinity for some of the smaller or less-recognized creatures on this planet\, Sarah has primarily focused on studying moths during her time at AUNE. Her other interests besides invertebrates include landscape-scale conservation\, ecological inventories and successive biology. Sarah’s thesis topic is Moth Diversity in Managed Inland Pine Barrens and Heathlands of Massachusetts. She conducted her pilot study during Fall 2019 and her formal research from May to October 2020 with support from the Massachusetts Division of Fisheries and Wildlife’s Natural Heritage & Endangered Species Program (NHESP). Throughout the span of this project\, Sarah has become well-acquainted with various field collection and species identification techniques\, museum specimen preparation and iNaturalist™. Some of Sarah’s previous experience includes the identification of shellfish and gastropods for a study informing the restoration of salt marshes managed by Cape Cod National Seashore. Sarah has also worked on the identification of ant species for Harvard Forest’s “Warm Ants” project and as a Migratory Fish Count Technician\, monitoring the seasonal migration of fish in the Connecticut River for the U.S. Fish & Wildlife Service. \n
