Zoom In: "Birds of Maine" Book
Wednesday, May 5, 12:00-1:00 p.m.
The recently published Birds of Maine is the legacy of a lifetime of work by the late ornithologist Peter Vickery. Diagnosed with a terminal illness, Peter assembled a small team of Maine's top ornithologists as co-authors to complete the project. Barbara Vickery, Peter’s wife and life partner, as well as co-managing editor of Birds of Maine, will be joined by Jeff Wells, Vice President of Boreal Conservation for National Audubon and one of the book’s co-authors to share the story of the book’s creation and content, an overview of the conservation status of Maine’s birds, and some ideas on how all of us can contribute to bird conservation. The event is free but advance registration is required.
