SUMMARY:Forestry for the Birds & Climate Resilience Tour at Willard Pond Wildlife Sanctuary
DESCRIPTION:This winter\, NH Audubon is partnering with forestry & wildlife professionals to conduct a timber harvest at the Willard Pond Sanctuary to enhance habitat diversity for birds and other wildlife as well as the forest’s resilience to climate change. Join us for a walking tour of the active timber harvest to learn about this project and see timber harvesting equipment in action. During our walk we will discuss why this timber harvest is happening\, the process used to plan and implement the timber harvest\, and how birds and other wildlife are expected to respond. This walk is ideal for anyone interested in learning more about any aspect of timber harvesting and it will be particularly helpful for folks interested in learning how timber harvesting can be used to benefit a variety of bird species. This is an active timber harvest so the route for the tour will be on uneven ground and will be hilly and slippery in some areas. This tour will be lead by Jeremy Turner (Meadowsend Consulting Co.)\, Matt Tarr (State Wildlife Habitat Specialist\, UNH Cooperative Extension)\, Mike Gagnon (Hillsborough Co. Extension Forester)\, Marc Nutter (NH Audubon Conservation Program Director). NH Licensed Forester and SAF CEUs will be provided. \n  \nBios:\nJeremy Turner: Jeremy has been working with NH Audubon for over a decade\, helping to manage our forests with birds and climate resilience in mind. You can see his great work on the Kensan-Devan Wildlife Sanctuary. More about Jeremy can be found on the Meadowsend website. \nMatt Tarr: Matt is a professional wildlife biologist and NH Licensed forester. As State Wildlife Habitat Specialist for UNH Cooperative Extension he works throughout NH in close partnership with the NH Fish & Game Department to assist private landowners and communities improve habitat for wildlife. His specialties include planning commercial timber harvesting to improve forested wildlife habitat\, shrubland and young forest ecology & management\, field management to benefit vertebrate & invertebrate wildlife\, wetlands wildlife ecology\, the role of native and invasive plants as habitat for wildlife\, and bird ecology & identification. \nMike Gagnon: Mike is an Extension Forester and Field Specialist in Natural Resources for the University of New Hampshire Cooperative Extension in Hillsborough County. Mike works primarily with communities and private landowners to help assist and educate them on forest resource issues to help them better meet their stewardship goals. Mike’s work also focuses on management of invasive nuisance vegetation within the Natural Resources team at Extension. Mike is a NH Licensed Forester and NH Licensed Pesticide Applicator and works as part of the Extension Pesticide Safety Education Program team. Mike has an associate degree in forest technology from the Thompson School of Applied Sciences at UNH\, and a bachelor’s and a master’s degree in natural resources & forestry from the University of New Hampshire. \n  \nCover photo: Walking through the seed cut of the Kensan-Devan Wildlife Sanctuary in 2021\, Phil Brown and Jeremy Turner appreciate the early successional habitat that was created in this patch cut. Wildlife snags were also left to encourage insects and cavity nesters.

SUMMARY:Astronomy Talk and Viewing
DESCRIPTION:Red Barn Series\, Newfound Audubon\nNo registration necessary – just come and join us! \nSpeaker: John Bishop\, New Hampshire Astronomical Society \nWhen we look up at the night sky on a clear night\, we see points of light with varied color and brightness. We know that the light has reached us across the vastness of space\, but just how far has it traveled? And how do we know that? Astronomers have the cosmic distance ladder to measure farther and farther away from us\, using different methods to cover greater and greater distances. \nJoin John Bishop of the New Hampshire Astronomical Society as he describes the distance ladder and also opens a window into the August night sky. After his presentation in the Red Barn\, head outside with John for a Sky Watch. \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 2022 Red Barn Series sponsor\, the Hebron Conservation Commission; and to our co-host\, the Newfound Lake Region Association.\n \nPhoto: The moon and Venus (NASA photo).

SUMMARY:Climate Change and Coastal Carnivores: Rising Water and Changing Habitat
DESCRIPTION:Red Barn Series\, Newfound Audubon\nNo registration necessary – just come and join us! \nSpeaker: Mirka Zapletal\, Newfound Lake Region Association \nIn New Hampshire we hear that climate change is bringing us heat waves\, heavy rain storms\, and earlier springs. And it’s not just humans who will be affected- New Hampshire wildlife populations may have to adjust to these new conditions or disappear. How will climate change impact some of these same species in coastal areas along the Gulf of Mexico where land loss is an additional issue? Conservation ecologist Mirka Zapletal will share her research on coastal carnivores in Louisiana\, such as coyotes and otters\, and rodents with similar roles in the ecosystem. Future models of Louisiana’s coast suggest dramatically altered landscapes going forward and that could have huge impacts on where these species are found. \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. \nMirka recently earned her doctorate from the University of Louisiana at Lafayette where she did this research. She’s now the Education & Outreach Manager for the Newfound Lake Region Association where her work focuses on getting people outside to experience the Newfound Watershed and conservation work in new ways.\n \nSpecial thanks to our 2022 Red Barn Series sponsor\, the Hebron Conservation Commission; and to our co-host\, the Newfound Lake Region Association.\n \nPhoto: Mirka in the field (courtesy photo).

SUMMARY:Dragons and Damsels of NH
DESCRIPTION:Red Barn Series\, Newfound Audubon\nNo registration necessary – just come and join us! \nSpeaker: Dr. Pam Hunt\, NH Audubon \nWelcome to the fascinating world of the insect order Odonata! You may be familiar with the dragonflies buzzing over your yard in the summer\, or the damselflies that land on your kayak\, but what do you REALLY know about these ancient insects? This program provides an overview of the biology and ecology of dragonflies and damselflies\, from their amazing life cycle (content alert: some pretty crazy reproductive behavior is involved!) to their incredible diversity. It also highlights a few of NH’s notable species and their stories\, and closes with some results from the “NH Dragonfly Survey\,” a five year volunteer-based project that documented the distribution of these insects across the state. \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 2022 Red Barn Series sponsor\, the Hebron Conservation Commission; and to our co-host\, the Newfound Lake Region Association.\n \nPhoto: Dragonfly (Pam Hunt).

SUMMARY:Tracking New Hampshire’s Endangered Northern Harriers
DESCRIPTION:Red Barn Series\, Newfound Audubon\nNo registration necessary – just come and join us! \nSpeaker: Chris Martin\, Senior Biologist\, NH Audubon \nWith slender dihedral wings and a rudder-like tail\, a Northern Harrier glides low over fields and marshes in search of prey. Look away\, and it might vanish into tall grass or behind a stone wall. Literally and figuratively flying under the radar for several decades\, is New Hampshire’s declining harrier breeding population also about to disappear? NH Fish & Game reclassified them as state-endangered in 2008\, and they are funding NH Audubon’s current efforts to monitor and manage these marsh hawks. Chris will discuss efforts to document what remains of NH’s breeding harrier population. \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. \nChris Martin is a NH Audubon raptor biologist. For 32 years he has led recovery of the state’s Bald Eagles\, Ospreys\, and Peregrine Falcons\, in close collaboration with NH Fish & Game’s Nongame Wildlife Program. He recruits\, trains\, and supervises an enthusiastic corps of volunteer observers who monitor these species at sites scattered across the Granite State.\n \nSpecial thanks to our 2022 Red Barn Series sponsor\, the Hebron Conservation Commission; and to our co-host\, the Newfound Lake Region Association.\n \nPhoto: Chris Martin on Mt Washington (David Govatski).
