    Zoom Meeting October 21: Katie Fallon on Cerulean Warblers

    19:00 -21:00
    10/21/2020

    Katie Fallon will be the October speaker for the Williamsburg Bird Club. She will be talking about Cerulean Warblers.
    The Cerulean Warbler is the fastest-declining Neotropical migrant songbird, losing 3% of its population per year since 1966. In addition to sharing tips for finding and identifying Cerulean Warblers, this presentation will discuss the challenges these beautiful birds face during the breeding and non-breeding seasons. How does a male attract a female? Who builds the nest, and how do they choose a nest location? How many young do they have, and how do they raise them? Once Cerulean Warblers leave North America at the end of the breeding season, where do they go? And what might they encounter along the way? Find out why your morning cup of coffee is important to Cerulean Warbler conservation, and learn ways that you can help save migratory songbirds.
    She has also just had her book on Vultures reissued.
