SUMMARY:“Vagrant Birds Seen in Maine”
DESCRIPTION:Finding a bird out of its normal range is always an excitingevent. Birds’ ability to fly sometimes produces jaw-dropping occurrences wellbeyond the normal range of a species. This Western Maine Audubon talk will explore some of the research that has been done to explain vagrancy in birds. Some explanations rely on intentional movements to explore outside the normal range and others involve the effects of storms and faulty navigation. We will consider some of the more amazing vagrants that have occurred in Maine. \nHerb Wilson is a Professor Emeritus of Biology at ColbyCollege where he taught Ornithology\, Evolution and Diversity\, Marine Ecology\,and Marine Invertebrate Zoology. His primary ornithological interests are the impacts of global climate change on bird migration and the foraging behavior ofwinter birds in Maine. \nFor those who cannot attend the talk in person\, it can be accessed live via Zoom. The link for the sign in will be posted online at https://western.maineaudubon.org/events/ and on the Western Maine Audubon Facebook page. Both postings will be available on the day of the talk. A video will also be recorded and posted on the website’s “Video” page. \n \nFREE. Open to the Public. Sponsored by: NASC and the student chapter of The Wildlife Society. Contact: Assoc. Prof. Donelle Schwalm donelle.schwalm@maine.edu.
