SUMMARY:Christmas In May Count Registration
DESCRIPTION:Join Golden Gate Audubon Society’s new Christmas-in-May Bird Counts (CiMBC) on Saturday\, May 8th! \nFind as many bird species as possible in your chosen area… while contributing to community science and generating funds to protect Bay Area birds. \nChoose from 25 AREAS in Oakland or 17 AREAS in San Francisco. Pick an area you’ve birded before in our Christmas count to experience the seasonal changes in bird populations\, or explore an entirely new area. Or select Feeder Watch to count birds in your own yard. Sign up early to ensure your first choice of birding area\, since there is a limit of 10 birders per count area. \nOur count day of May 8 coincides with eBird’s GLOBAL BIG DAY: We’re asking every participant to upload their tally to eBird so we can contribute to this massive community science effort. Not familiar with eBird? No problem! We’ll host a Zoom class on Saturday\, May 2\, at 7 p.m. to develop your eBird Mobile skills. \nAlong with birding fun and community science\, Christmas-in-May has a third important aspect—supporting Golden Gate Audubon. Your registration fee of $25 (or $15 for students/low-income) helps us continue our work protecting Bay Area birds. \nMultiply the impact of your own contribution by getting friends or family members to support your area team! Find your team’s fundraising page HERE. Your friends can make a fixed donation in advance or—to heighten the suspense on count day—make a per-species pledge such as 50 cents for every species you find.

SUMMARY:Singing Hummingbird Feathers and the Quiet Flight of Owls (and Other Birds)
DESCRIPTION:Dr. Chris Clark will present ongoing research in his lab\, starting with work on how hummingbirds make sounds with their tail feathers during courtship displays. Then he will shift to ongoing research he is conducting on why owls have evolved to fly quietly. \nDr. Clark grew up in Seattle where he started birdwatching at age 15. After graduating from Washington State University with a degree in Zoology\, he received his Ph.D. at UC Berkeley in 2009. He then worked in the Peabody Museum at Yale University before starting a faculty position in the Evolution\, Ecology and Organismal Biology department at UC Riverside. \nThis talk is recommended for high school and up. Please register – the Zoom meeting link will be sent in the confirmation. If you have trouble registering or have any questions\, please contact Sirena Lao\, Environmental Education and Outreach Specialist\, at slao@sfbbo.org. \nThis program is possible thanks to the support of SFBBO donors. To help keep these events going\, we hope you’ll consider making a suggested donation of $5 or more if you can. Your tax-deductible donation helps us make these events available to the public and engage broad audiences with birds\, nature\, science\, and conservation. You may donate in increments of $5 below or click here to donate a different amount.
