SUMMARY:Special DOS October Meeting:  "Delaware Bird-a-Thon 20th Anniversary Celebration!"
DESCRIPTION:NOTE THE EARLIER START TIME! Join us for a special evening celebrating Delaware Bird-a-Thon’s 20 years of conservation success in person only at the Delaware Museum of Nature and Science! \n\n\n\nThe event is free and open to everyone but you must register in advance. \n\n\n\n\nClick here to register\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nFrom Prime Hook to Passmore Farm\, DOS Conservation Chair Matt Sarver will share a “where they are now” of the lands Bird-a-Thon has acquired and their impact on conservation in Delaware. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nOur keynote speaker\, Autumn-Lynn Harrison \, is a Research Ecologist at the Smithsonian Migratory Bird Center\, where she manages the Shorebird Science and Conservation Collective\, which brings together the knowledge of agencies\, universities\, nonprofits\, and community scientists to advance shorebird conservation in the Western Hemisphere. Scientists tracking shorebirds with electronic tags across the Western Hemisphere have shared data from over 3\,000 individual birds representing over 30 species that can be combined with survey and community science data to support the science needs of interested groups working to conserve and manage shorebirds and their habitats. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWe’ll hear a video message from John Fitzpatrick\, retired Director of the Cornell Lab of Ornithology and longtime Bird-a-Thon donor. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nKat Christie from the Delaware Division of Fish and Wildlife will update us on Delaware’s shorebird populations and the impact of our work on the Bayshore. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWe will recognize Senator Stephanie Hansen with the DOS Conservation Award for her work on habitat and species conservation\, especially the landmark freshwater wetlands protections she championed this year! \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nA special signed\, limited print run of Liz Clayton Fuller’s magnificent Red Knot painting (the basis for the Delaware shorebird license plate) will be unveiled and offered for purchase. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nPlus Bird-a-Thon awards for the 2026 teams\, door prizes\, and more! \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThe meeting is held IN PERSON ONLY at Delaware Museum of Nature and Science.
