Greetings all,
Registration is now open for our spring SDOU meeting! This will be a tri-state joint meeting with our fellow birders from Iowa and Nebraska, hosted the weekend of May 16-18 at the Salvation Army Western Plains Camp in South Sioux City, NE.
There is a fantastic array of field trips scheduled in all three states, a Friday night poster session, and a Saturday keynote by Nebraska's Michael Forsberg (https://www.michaelforsberg.com/ (https://www.michaelforsberg.com/)). Michael is a celebrated photographer, author, and conservationist who has dedicated over three decades to capturing and telling the story of wildlife and conservation in the Great Plains through his work. He has very recently published a new book, Into Whooperland, that tells the story of the endangered Whooping Crane. Copies of the book will be available during the meeting.
Full details and online registration are available on the IOU website (https://iowabirds.org/IOU/Meetings/NextMeeting.aspx); the purple button to register is in the upper right. We are also pointing to this page from SDOU's Next Meeting site (https://sdou.org/SDOU/NextMeeting.aspx). For those wishing to submit an abstract for the poster session, there is information on the site about that as well.
Please let me know if you have any questions, and I hope to see you there!
Chris Anderson
Sioux Falls, SD
