SUMMARY:Town Hall Meeting - Help Stop Bird Strikes in Saint Paul

SUMMARY:Why “YOU” are not like a bird - Stan Tekiela - This Event is Full
DESCRIPTION:This Event is FULL \nIn Person Only – No Cost but Reservations Required  \nCo-Sponsored with Land of Lakes Bird Alliance \nWe often compare our human bodies and senses (such as eyesight\, hearing\, digestion\, reproduction\, and more) and project what we think we know onto birds and their behavior. In this fun\, yet in-depth presentation\, Stan walks us through why we are almost always wrong when we compare ourselves to the birds. His extensive knowledge of bird biology is presented in his usual humorous\, accessible manner. \nNaturalist\, wildlife photographer\, and author Stan Tekiela is the creator of the popular state-specific field guides\, including Birds of Minnesota\, Wildflowers of Minnesota\, and Trees of Minnesota. Over the past four decades\, Stan has authored more than 200 field guides\, nature appreciation books\, and wildlife audio CDs for nearly every state in the nation\, presenting many species of birds\, mammals\, reptiles and amphibians\, trees\, wildflowers\, and cacti. \nWith a Bachelor of Science in Natural History from the University of Minnesota and more than 40 years as an active professional naturalist\, Stan studies and photographs wildlife throughout the United States and has received national and regional awards for his books and photographs. He is also a well-known columnist and radio personality; his syndicated column appears in over 20 newspapers\, and his wildlife programs are broadcast on several Midwest radio stations. He is a member of the North American Nature Photography Association and Canon Professional Services along with many other professional organizations.
