The Washington Ornithological Society would like to announce their monthly
membership meeting in Seattle:

Monday, November 4th -- Tom Bloxton will give a talk entitled "Northern
Goshawk Research in Intensively Managed Forests of Western Washington." He
will discuss research he conducted from 1996-2000 relating to both nesting
and foraging habitat as well as the impact of the 1998-99 La Nina season on
goshawks in western Washington.

Tom received a Bachelor of Science degree in the Wildlife Science Group,
College of Forest Resources at the UW before conducting this research in the
same department. He is now an employee of the Rural Technology Initiative in
the College of Forest Resources where he is developing wildlife-habitat
models for use in forest management planning.

Monthly Membership Meetings are held the first Monday of the month (except

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

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
