Membership Meeting
Date: Thursday, November 16 Thank you to those of you who were able to attend today's meeting at the Machine Shed. I thought the presentation by Mike Eickman and his wife Deb was outstanding. It was really informative to learn about the bird banding facility at the Colored Sands Forest Preserve. Can you believe they have banded 397,000 birds? Mike invited us to come out to the facility, they start at 4 am and work until noon as he said the birds are more active in the morning. Click on Photos above to see pictures from the meeting.
