[cobirds] Aiken Audubon Society (Colorado Springs) presents Dr. Brian Linkhart - Flammulated Owls Update & Chocolate!

February 12, 2014
 
Please join us!
 
When:    Wednesday, February 19th
Time:    Doors open at 6:30 p.m.; Program starts at 7:00 p.m.; Ends approximately 8:30 p.m.
Where: Colorado Division of Wildlife, 4255 Sinton Road, Colorado Springs, CO 80907; please use rear entrance where the classroom is located.
 
What: The Flammulated Owl is as small as a fist and reticent enough to disappear into the shadows of western forests. Considered the country's leading expert on Flammulated Owls, Dr. Brian D. Linkhart has been studying the demography and habitat requirements of this small raptor on the Manitou Experimental Forest since 1981. His aim is the development of conservation plans for forest ecosystems containing this and other sensitive species. With this extended period of study Brian has been able to uncover some fascinating secrets about this species. Don't miss this outstanding program.
 
Dr. Brian D. Linkhart is Assistant Professor of Biology at Colorado College, where he teaches courses in ornithology, ecology and field biology.
 
And where does the chocolate fit in?  According to tradition, our February meeting includes a potluck dessert: Death by Chocolate! Bring something yummy (and preferably chocolate!) to share, and come at 6:30—early enough to sample all the goodies before the program begins at 7 pm.
 
 
Hope to see you there!
 
Christine A. Bucher
President, Aiken Audubon Society
