The Birds Bees and Blooms Symposium for 2010 is History! The Symposium was a great success. Thanks to everyone who made it possible by volunteering, donating, presenting or attending. If you're a visitor to our area or a curious nearby resident, join us at one of our monthly meetings or call (or e-mail) one of our Contacts for club information or about birding in the Macomb County area. Our meetings comprise interesting programs, recent area bird sightings, a short business meeting, and, of course, refreshments (key to any birder's agenda). Our meetings and field trips are open to the public. We don't charge fees unless noted on the schedule. So feel free to visit us and see what we're all about. For information about us, check the links on the left menu or at the bottom of this page. To return to this page, use the browser's Back button or press the menu's Home button. Announcements: It's time once again for our annual Bird-a-Thon in support of Joe Rogers' Wildlife Recovery Association (WRA). Anyone who attended the Birds, Bees & Blooms Symposium experienced firsthand Joe's unique and magical presentation style. This year Oakland Audubon will be joining us in the Bird-a-Thon. Mike Mencotti has suggested a friendly competition to see just how many species each of the two groups can come up with. Whaddaya think? Barb Baldinger and Tom Heatley have finished compiling the results of Macomb Audubon's 2009 Christmas Bird Count. You may read Barb's writeup, and a copy of the results appears on our web site. We have recently received the Holiday Edition of the Michigan Audubon Chapter Connection newsletter. It's available on our Other Events page. Kariann has sent us her 2009 Peregrine Patrol summary, covering all the local falcon activity this year. It was really been quite the productive year. The word is that Kariann is moving to Texas and will not be continuing as the SE Michigan Peregrine Coordinator. Best of luck Kariann from all of us! Brian McGee has updated the Macomb County Birding Checklist. It's available from our Birding Macomb page. If you have anything you wish to contribute to this page please feel free to contact us. Macomb Audubon's newsletter The Earthstar publishes bimonthly. Issues are published in January, March, May, July, September and November. If you have anything you would like to contribute, the deadline is the 12'th of the month preceding publication.
