Reddish Egret Program Reminder...

Just a quick reminder about this Saturday’s upcoming program on the Reddish Egret, presented by Rebecca Bracken. Rebecca has spent several years studying Reddish Egrets while completing her master’s degree, and will discuss topics to include:

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 conducted?
How you can get involved!


This last topic (How you can get involved) will include initial discussions on creating a citizen science, volunteer monitoring program, to assist in collecting valuable nesting/habitat data.
