February 8, 2010 Lela Larned - Bird Rehabilitation at Wild Care

Found a baby bird all alone on the ground? Or a stranded seabird blown ashore during a nor'easter?  Or an owl hit by a car?  Come hear Lela Larned, Executive Director of Wild Care in Eastham, tell us about the successful work she and her veterinary and wildlife rehabilitation staff, volunteers and interns do to treat injured, ill and orphaned native birds and wildlife, for release back into the wild. Wild Care is the Cape's only independent, native wildlife rescue and rehabilitation organization.  Since its founding in 1989, Wild Care has accepted over 17,000 patients for treatment.  A fabulous program for all animal lovers!

March 8, 2010 Paul Roberts - “Hawk Population Trends: The Fall and Rise of Hawks in North America”

Hundreds of bird species are declining significantly in numbers. Many  hawk species, however, are more abundant now than they were fifty years ago.  Why? What happened?  At the same time, why are some hawk species not doing so well. Learn about the exciting resurgence and the challenging future of hawks in North America with Paul Roberts.

Paul M. Roberts is the founder of the Eastern Mass Hawk Watch (www.massbird.org/EMHW), an organization whose mission is to promote the study and conservation of hawks locally and on a continental scale by monitoring migration in Massachusetts.  He also is President of the Northeast Hawk Watch, and a Director and 
former Chair of the Hawk Migration Association of North America (HMANA).
