Date: 2/28/23 9:52 am From: Hannah Clipp <hlclipp...> Subject: Mountaineer Audubon Program on Tuesday, Mar 14 - "Science in the Scope" with WVU Graduate Students!
Hi all,
Please mark your calendars for the Mountaineer Audubon March 2023 meeting,
which will take place virtually (over Zoom) on *Tuesday, March 14, at 7 pm*.
*Program Description:*
It's time for our annual program entitled "Science in the scope: The latest
in bird research by WVU graduate students"! This event will feature 4 West
Virginia University graduate students: Andrew MacKenzie (Master’s student),
Robert Ryan (PhD student), Spencer Parkinson (Master’s student), and Hannah
Clipp (PhD candidate). Together, their bird-related research spans multiple
habitats (from grassy wildlife openings to wetlands to mature forests) and
focal bird species (including game birds, cerulean and golden-winged
warblers, and a diversity of other forest birds). Each graduate student
will give a brief talk that provides an overview of their research and
preliminary results. You don’t want to miss out on this opportunity to
learn about the bird-related science happening at WVU!
*Attend the Virtual Meeting:*
This program is free and open to the public -- everyone is welcome! Keep an
eye out in the next week or so for the Zoom invitation link, which will be
sent out in a follow-up email.
