We are continuing our
fall Bird Nerd Series on Saturday,
October 3rd, 2015 from 9am-11am at the Texas City Prairie
Preserve (4702 Hwy 146 N Texas City Tx 77590).
Rebecca Bracken will be
speaking about the charismatic Reddish Egret. We have seen many reddish egrets, but what do
we really know about them? She’ll be
covering topics such as:
- What is a reddish egret?
- Why is the reddish egret so alluring?
- Why are there so few reddish egrets? Historically, what happened to them?
- What is their current conservation status?
- What research is currently being completed and how do we study this species?
- How you can get involved!
Take advantage of this
unique opportunity to learn about a remarkable species. Rebecca has spent several years studying
reddish egrets while completing her master’s degree, and will be available to
answer any questions!
We will also have a
calendar of scheduled Restoration Island Workdays for this fall available for
sign up at this workshop. Many of these islands are either accessible by boat
or kayak for those interested.
