3/19/2018

0 Comments

 
Katie Percy, Avian Biologist, Audubon Louisiana spoke at tonight's March 2018 FoBB meeting, where attendees were privileged to learn about Prothonotary Warblers themselves, and also about research and activities of Audubon Louisiana of the breeding areas and winter habitats.

Katie works with the next generation of students, and has studied the habitat and habits of the species. Prothonotaries specifically nest in cavities in bottomland hardwoods and cypress Tupelo swamps.  Audubon Louisiana volunteers are always needed for banding, research, and is sometimes labor intensive, so if you are interested in volunteering, you may reach out to Audubon Louisiana or Katie for  more information.

Additional sources of information include:
  • Why Birds Matter 
  • Nest Watch 
  • Motus

Thank you, Katie for an informative and educational conservation presentation in this "Year of the Bird!"
