Kim et al:
Just to let you know how warm this winter has been virtually
everywhere in the Temperate Zone, here in SW Florida, Purple Martin
scouts have already returned in certain areas some 2-3 weeks ahead of
schedule! The first verified PUMA report in the state is from the
Sarasota area on January 5th! So be patient Ohio birders, they're on
their way. . . .

Subject: Purple Martins
Hello Everyone,
On Saturday, January 20th, the Black Swamp Bird Observatory (BSBO)
will be hosting a program on establishing and maintaining Purple
Martin colonies. This program will be presented by Morris Yoder,
President of the American Bird Conservation Association (ABCA). The
ABCA is an Ohio based organization dedicated to conservation and
education, with a focus on secondary cavity nesters. Morris is also
a successful auctioneer, and this vocal talent makes him a really
enjoyable public speaker. His talks are very informative, backed by
years of experience, and extremely entertaining to boot!
This program is part of the BSBO Lunch Lecture Series, so in addition
to this great presentation, we'll feed you a nice lunch too. We
begin each program with lunch at 12:30 and the presentations are from
1:00-2:00 PM. Cost is a $7.00 donation per BSBO member and a $10.00
donation per nonmember.
Please call the BSBO Nature Center at (419) 898-4070 to reserve a seat.
For directions to the BSBO Nature Center and to check out all the
other great stuff BSBO is up to, visit our fantastic new website at:

Thanks and good birding,
Kim Kaufman
