SUMMARY:Monarch Migration: How Radio-tagging Informs Conservation with Diane De Luca
DESCRIPTION:The last generation of monarchs travel south to overwinter in central Mexico. A journey close to 3000 miles. The placement of tiny Nanotags on migrating monarch butterflies is part of the larger Motus Project\, a global migration tracking system that NH Audubon and many partners are expanding in the Northeast. Tracking information helps determine phenology\, travel speeds\, and migration routes of the tagged monarchs. During this online presentation\, we will share what we have learned in the last two years of tagging monarchs and how this helps inform conservation.  \nThis presentation will take place virtually via Zoom.  \nPresenter:\nDiane De Luca\, NH Audubon Senior Biologist  \nCost:\n$12 for NH Audubon members\n$15 for non-members (Join or renew your membership today! Not sure of your membership status? Email our member services department or call (603) 224-9909 x310.) \nRegistration Required by November 8\, 2023  \nAll ticket purchases will generate a printable ticket with a QR code; please keep the printable ticket with QR code for your records.  \nZoom links will be sent to all virtual participants prior to the webinar. The link does not generate immediately\, so your patience is appreciated. Every effort will be made to record the presentation for registered attendees who miss the livestream.  \nFor accessibility requests\, please contact Massabesic Center Director\, Kimmie Whiteman\, at kwhiteman@nhaudubon.org.  \nThe NH Audubon Scientist Series features our Senior Biologists sharing their research and data in monthly presentations at Massabesic Center during 2023.  \n

SUMMARY:Resilient Raptors Webinar
DESCRIPTION:Contamination & Continued Diligence   \nThis final program dovetails back to our pilot webinar as we return to the topic of ecosystem contamination and how it persists today. While there are readily available alternatives\, lead (Pb) is still used in hunting ammunition and in fishing tackle. This creates significant ongoing threats to wildlife\, both from current use and the legacy of old ammo and fishing tackle left in lakes\, streams\, and forests. We will conclude by presenting the various steps we can collectively take to ensure the continued success of our Bald Eagle population.   \nTo register for the webinar please click the registration link below: \nhttps://us02web.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_TJ_qRtolTEuxQu8b5wKHZA \nOnce you have registered\, you will receive a confirmation email. Reminders will be sent to your inbox with the Zoom link 5 days before\, one day before\, and an hour before the actual webinar begins. We hope you enjoy this year’s Resilient Raptors Webinar Series.

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. Programs are free to the public\, streamed via Zoom\, YouTube\, and Facebook Live. Presentations are supported by a grant from the Benjamin and Gertrude Couch Trusts.

SUMMARY:The Secret Lives of Wild Bees
DESCRIPTION:The Secret Life of Wild Bees \nThursday\, June 23: 7-8:15pm \nCost: Free \nRegistration Link \nNick Dorian is an ecologist\, an educator\, and a naturalist. He is a PhD student at Tufts University where he studies the population ecology of cellophane bees and runs the Tufts Pollinator Initiative\, an urban pollinator conservation and community outreach group. \nYou’ve probably heard “save the bees!” as news reports of insect declines flood the media. But do you know which bees need saving? Over 4000 species of bees inhabit North America\, and most of them don’t live in hives or make honey. In this lecture\, PhD student and New England bee expert Nick Dorian will teach you about the natural history and conservation of wild bees that call New England home. Together\, we’ll examine closely their varied lifestyles\, their habitat needs\, and their intricate relationships with flowering plants and other insects. You’ll come away with clear action items for creating habitat for native bees in your gardens and with a newfound appreciation for these charismatic pollinators. \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.  \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. Programs are free to the public\, streamed via Zoom\, YouTube\, and Facebook Live. Presentations are supported by a grant from the Benjamin and Gertrude Couch Trusts. \nThe Pollinator Series will kick off on Earth Day\, Friday April 22 and culminate with a Pollinator BioBlitz at the McLane Center in Concord\, NH on June 25.

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:A Multi-Regional Assessment of Eastern Whip-poor-will
DESCRIPTION:A Multi-Regional Assessment of Eastern Whip-poor-will (Antrostomus vociferus) Occupancy Within Managed Forests Using Autonomous Recording Units \nWednesday\, February 9 \nOver the past half century\, many eastern forest birds have experienced significant population declines. These declines have in part been attributed to habitat loss and degradation. State and federal agencies have initiated conservation efforts to improve habitat conditions for several forest dependent wildlife. The recent availability of low-cost autonomous recording units (ARUs) has shown great promise to facilitate monitoring\, particularly for species that are logistically difficult to survey (e.g.\, nocturnal species). A collaborative research project involving research scientists from the University of Massachusetts\, Indiana University of Pennsylvania\, SUNY College of Environmental Science & Forestry\, University of Pittsburgh and University of Maryland deployed ARUs across hundreds of managed forests from North Carolina to Maine to assess whip-poor-will occupancy. \nIn this presentation\, project lead Jeffery (JT) Larkin will discuss whip-poor-will ecology and share initial monitoring results. \nVisit the Seacoast Chapter website for further details and to register for the free zoom talk.

SUMMARY:Pollinator Panel Discussion: Lessons from the Field
DESCRIPTION:Join New Hampshire Audubon and collaborators from UNH Cooperative Extension and the Xerces Society for a Webinar Panel Discussion on Creating Pollinator Habitat  \nThursday\, November 4: 7PM – 9PM \nThe panel discussion will share best practices around establishing pollinator habitat in New England. Discussion topics will include techniques for creating pollinator meadows\, native plant selection\, benefits to pollinators and invasives through the lens of insects. Presentations by the panelists will be followed by an open Q&A by the audience. Panelists include: Marc Nutter\, NH Audubon; Alina Harris\, Xerces Society; Emma Erler and Matt Tarr\, UNH Extension Cooperative Extension. \nThis event is free and open to the public. Registration is requested. This project is being funded by the State Conservation Commission’s Moose Plate Grant Program. \n(Free) Registration via Zoom \nSaturday\, November 20: 10AM – 12 Noon \nAs a follow up to the Webinar\, an in-person walkthrough of the McLane Center project to learn more will occur on November 20 from 10am-12pm. We will gather at the McLane Center in Concord to view the progress of converting one acre of old field to a pollinator meadow. NH Audubon with the help of our collaborators are using a variety of techniques across one acre to better access what preparation methods work best at this scale. The field trip will allow participants to see and more fully discuss the details of field prep and seeding. \nSee that event\, here\, for more details and a registration link. \nPhoto: Volunteers help create pollinator meadow habitat at McLane Center\, by Marc Nutter.
