Tweets - the November meeting of the Washington Ornithological Society
will be this coming Monday, November 3, 2008 at 7:30 p.m. at the
Center for Urban Development in Seattle.

The speaker will be Dr. Dennis Paulson giving a presentation on
South Africa in Spring (Actually Fall)

Dennis Paulson showed us a dazzling array of bird species from his two weeks
in Namibia in April 2008, and now he's going to follow up with photos from
another two weeks spent in South Africa on the same trip. He and his wife
visited the highlands of that country for a few days, then dropped down to
the coastal plain of KwaZulu-Natal all the way to the Indian Ocean. While
visiting numerous game preserves, some of them among the most famous in the
world, they observed and photographed many species of birds as well as some
of the charistmatic mammals for which the continent is famous. And don't be
surprised at photos of dragonflies and other smaller creatures they
encountered.


WOS Programs are free and open to all. They are held the first Monday of
each month at the Center for Urban Horticulture on the University of
Washington campus, 3501 NE 41st St. in Seattle (directions below). Doors
open at 7:00 PM and the program begins at 7:30 PM.

Directions: From I-5, take SR 520 East. Take the Montlake Blvd. NE exit and
turn north towards the University of Washington campus. Stay in right lane
and go north on Montlake Blvd. over the bridge and past the stadium. The
road will curve to the right around the Montlake Fill and merge with NE 45th
St. You will quickly approach a five-way intersection. At the
intersection, turn right onto Mary Gates Memorial Drive. The Center for
Urban Horticulture is two 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. Bus numbers 25, 65, and 75 all stop at NE 45th and
Mary Gates Memorial Drive.

Hope to see you all there.
