Our April meeting program is “Intro to Birding / Bird Banding Research”, presented by Lindsay MacNamara. Are you new to birding? Curious about the birds beyond your backyard or neighborhood? Learn from an experienced naturalist about great spots across New Jersey for birding, including what you can expect to find, and what makes a location a great area for bird activity. This presentation will get you excited to look for our state’s exceptional range of migratory and year-round birds. Lindsay will also draw on her experience supporting bird banding research to share insights into how concerned community members are using science to learn about, monitor, and protect birds.
Lindsay McNamara has been birding since she was nine years old when she saw her first Great Blue Heron along the Raritan River. She has led bird walks since 2018 for groups like American Littoral Society, Bergen County Audubon Society, National Audubon Society, New Jersey Audubon Society, NJ Emerging Conservation Professionals, Raritan Headwaters Association, and Raven Crest Botanicals in New Jersey, New York, and Virginia. She has also taught virtual birding classes and has recently stepped out on her own to create Beachy Birder Adventures LLC. Lindsay is always looking to engage new birders in her lifelong passion and her favorite bird is the one she’s looking at!
The meeting will be at the Barnegat Branch of the Ocean County Library, 112 Burr St., Barnegat, NJ 08005.
The meeting will start at 7PM, with doors open at 6:30 for mingling.
