Hello everyone~ This Saturday, December 16th, the Black Swamp Bird Observatory (BSBO) will host a presentation on the Ohio Winter Bird Atlas (OWBA). Part of BSBO's popular Lunch Lecture Series, this month's lecture will be presented by Julie Shieldcastle, OWBA Coordinator. Julie will be speaking on the history and future of this important project and how you can join the Atlas team. BSBO Lunch Lectures take place the third Saturday of every month and offer fun and informative presentations covering a variety of natural history topics. They begin at 12:30 PM with a light lunch, followed by a feature presentation from 1:00-2:00. We ask that participants make a donation of $7.00/BSBO member and $10.00/nonmember to help cover the costs of these programs. Seats fill up fast, so please call the BSBO Nature Center at 419-898-4070 to register for the program.
