The next meeting of the Washington Ornithological Society will be this coming
Monday, May 7:

Martin Muller will give a talk about Pied-billed Grebe.

Since Martin Muller arrived in Seattle from his native Holland back in 1983,
he's been watching birds at Green Lake Park a lot, including an in-depth study
of the Pied-billed Grebes nesting at the lake. After "only" a few thousand
hours of observations coupled with in-depth literature study, Martin became so
familiar with the species he was asked to co-author the Birds of North America
account on the species. On May 7th Martin will present a slide-illustrated talk
on the natural history of pied-bills, including some unpublished findings.

Monthly Membership Meetings are held the first Monday of the month (except
July, August, & September). They are held at the Center for Urban Horticulture
on the University of Washington campus, 3501 NE 41st St., Seattle, and are open
to all. The social begins at 7:00 p.m. and the program starts at 7:30 p.m.

Directions: From I-5 take SR520 East. Take the Montlake Blvd NE exit and turn
North towards the University of Washington campus. Stay in right lane and drive
North on Montlake Blvd (over the bridge and past the stadium). The road will
curve to the right around the Montlake Fill and merges with NE 45th St. You
will quickly approach a 5 way intersection. At the intersection turn right
onto Mary Gates Memorial Drive. The Center for Urban Horticulture is 2 long
blocks down on the right. There is plenty of free parking at the facility. We
use the main meeting room, the backside of which faces the road.
