Bird Club Meeting and Winter Birds Presentation

Join the Discovery Center Bird Club for a presentation by John Bates, Bird Club member, local author, and Naturalist.  This program will be held at the Minocqua Library at 7:00pm.  Over 150 birds nest in the Lakeland region, yet only about 30 species remain throughout the winter, adapting to greatly diminished food sources, five months of below-freezing temperatures, and extremes of weather that would seem impossible to survive.  What bird species call Northern Wisconsin their permanent home, what Canadian birds come to visit from even more extreme environments, and how many of these manage to live to see the spring will be the focus.  Presentation will be preceded by a business meeting at 6:00pm. All welcome. Free.
