NOVEMBER PRAS MEETING A SUCCESS! We had a good turnout for our meeting…and such an interesting and informative program on pelicans by Kate Borduas. We had a delicious cake in honor of all those who had worked so hard removing debris from Audubon Pennington Park. Mike K won the 50/50 raffle and we had other raffle prizes. The gym turned out to be a fine alternative location to our regular meeting room at the church. Of course networking with our members and meeting new people is always a highlight.
What a nice walk with PRAS members and friends at the environmental center. Luckily there were enough trails that were dry enough for birding and we saw; Catbirds, Yellow-rumped, Pine, and Yellow-throated Warblers, Osprey, Great Egrets, 17 species in all. Chris Salmonson has a great deal of knowledge about the history of PRAS and CHEC, as well as the natural communities we passed through. We stopped at the new bird blind, and the new butterfly habitat that is under construction. As a special treat we ended up our visit watching the footage of the animals that were caught on the night vision camera at CHEC. It is always nice to have the chance to visit with our PRAS friends as we enjoy the outdoors.
