Hello Tweeters!

Last minute change of presenter's for tonight's WOS meeting:
Due to some technical difficulties (dang internet!), Dennis Paulson's presentation has been postponed.
Instead, Blair Bersen will be presenting his talk: "50/50/50- A Passionate Birding Adventure", TONIGHT at 7:30pm.

"50/50/50 -; A Passionate Birding Adventure recounts Blair Bernson's journey to all of the 50 United States finding 50 bird species on single days in each.  Following his passion for birds and people, the journey was undertaken to get a better understanding of the great variety of beliefs, backgrounds, histories and contexts found in our remarkably diverse country which have increasingly and sadly become a basis for an "us" versus "them" conflict.  Intersecting with birders in each state, he hoped to find a unifying commonality.
The birds and the people surpassed his wildest hopes providing memories for a lifetime, insights into how to bridge our differences and to better appreciate and build upon our great diversity.  By the numbers, there were more than 660 species seen in the company of more than 300 people.  He has no number for the many lessons learned or stories to tell.  His presentation shares many of those birds, people, lessons and stories." 

Please join us TONIGHT, Monday August 3, 2020 on GoToMeeting

Meeting begins at 7:30PM (log in at 7:15)
