February 15, 4-5 pm. Merck Forest, Rupert, VT. Who, Where, How — and most of all — Why do resident bird species overwinter in southern Vermont’s challenging habitat? Join conservation manager Tim Duclos* for a discussion of their adaptive strategies; his talk will be of interest to birders, conservationists, and even youngsters with a particular affinity for our feathered neighbors.  *Tim is a published ecologist with a particular interest in the impacts of climate change on avian survival.
