SUMMARY:Member Meeting - Darwin's Tangled Bank in a Changing World: The ecological and evolutionary implications of climate change for insects in temperate environments
DESCRIPTION:Tom Powell will be the guest speaker for our February meeting. He will discuss how anthropogenic climate change poses multifaceted threats to insect diversity well beyond the intuitive stresses of warmer summer temperatures. We will discuss some of the major ways that insects in our region are expected to be imperiled by changing seasonal regimes in the coming decades\, including the regulation of life cycle timing\, aspects of overwintering physiology\, and altered interactions with other species. \n  \nAs always\, Naturalists’ Club Member meetings are free and open to the public. \nCan’t make this month’s meeting in person?

SUMMARY:Member Meeting - Tracking Mammals in the Northeast
DESCRIPTION:Linda Spielman will be the guest speaker for our January meeting. She will discuss techniques for finding and identifying mammal tracks. \nLinda has been an environmental educator and student of animal tracking for over twenty-five years. She has studied tracking with Charles Worsham\, Paul Rezendes\, Susan Morse\, George Leoniak\, and Tom Brown. The tracker and artist Charles Worsham encouraged her to use drawing as a learning tool. Linda has been drawing ever since and loves the way drawing a track leads her to insights she would otherwise have missed. She has also been photographing tracks for many years and enjoys sharing her extensive collection of photos. She leads tracking workshops and informal outings with participants\nat all levels. She has worked with conservation organizations\, tracking conferences\, nature centers\, college and university classes\, and school-age youth. She also leads the Ithaca Tracking Club. Linda’s expertise will be shared with our club at our monthly meeting at the Vestal Public Library and again on a tracking field trip on February 4 (see below). You can also learn more through her book\, A Field Guide to Tracking Mammals in the Northeast. \n  \nZoom Meeting Information \nUse this link to join the meeting: \nhttps://us02web.zoom.us/j/86125429140?pwd=N2pjMy9mU3RBZTFSZ1JiVGpyam9mUT09\nMeeting ID: 861 2542 9140 Passcode: 948386 \nAll participants will be muted until the question and answer period of the presentation.

SUMMARY:Member Meeting - What's Up With The Trees?
DESCRIPTION:We’ll take a look at what’s going on with our trees – in the recent past and today – and what the future might hold. Environmental and ecological changes are accelerating\, and trees are a sort of visible canary-in-the-coal-mine indicator of nature’s health. We’ll look at a few species from American Chestnut to Ashes to Eastern Hemlock. Are the problems manageable? \nJeff Smith is a Naturalist and board member at Waterman Conservation Education Center (WCEC)\, with a focus on wetland ecology and botany. In the past few years he’s been working on inventorying plants and plant changes at WCEC sites. Recently he’s focused on invasive plants and insects and troubled trees (especially Hemlock and Ash). He promotes general nature education through nature/plant identification walks and talks. As a videographer\, he maintains the WCEC YouTube channel “Waterman’s STNY Nature” (youtube.com/@watermancenter). \nSilent Auction\nThe Naturalists’ Club will be holding their annual Silent Auction at our May membership meeting. Please bring any nature related items you would like to donate to the club for this fundraiser. Items can include books\, optics\, gardening supplies\, knick-knacks\, bird feeders\, and more. There will be bidding forms describing the item. Fill in your name and your bid amount on the form. Keep an eye on any items that you want.

SUMMARY:Online Meeting - California Condors: Back from the Brink
DESCRIPTION:California Condors once soared across the continent\, but progressive decline of food sources\, habitat\, and interactions with humans meant that by the 1980s\, there were barely two dozen birds alive. Massive efforts to keep the largest of North American birds alive have resulted in three well-monitored flocks that once again soar over the western regions of Mexico and United States. \n \nGuest speaker Christina Baal is a bird artist and naturalist whose dream in life is to meet and paint 10\,000 different species of birds. After graduating from Bard College with a degree in studio art\, she started her own art business and travels across the country and around the world searching for birds. Christina currently lives in Pinnacles National Park in Central California where she volunteers with the California Condor Recovery Program. \nJoin us online using this link to join the meeting:\nhttps://us02web.zoom.us/j/86125429140?pwd=N2pjMy9mU3RBZTFSZ1JiVGpyam9mUT09\nMeeting ID: 861 2542 9140 Passcode: 948386 \nThis meeting is open to the public\, all are welcome to join.

SUMMARY:Online Meeting - The Mysterious Stone Piles in the Woods
DESCRIPTION:Thousands of carefully laid up piles of stones are scattered across the hillsides of southern New York and northern Pennsylvania. They were built by human hands sometime after the glaciers retreated north more than 12\,000 years ago. When they were made\, who made them\, and why they were constructed are questions that do not have definite answers. \nDolores Elliott encountered a site in 1966 in Painted Post while on highway survey for the proposed right-of-way of route 17. In the years since she has inventoried several hundred more sites. Over 30 years ago she reported on them at a program of the Broome County Historical Society which met in Sears Harkness at Roberson Center. She has collected some more information since then but the questions are still not answered. \nClub member Dolores Elliott grew up her father’s Chenango County dairy farm and graduated from Bainbridge High School. She received a BA in Anthropology from Harpur College and a Masters in Archaeology from SUNY Binghamton.  \nJoin us online using this link to join the meeting:\nhttps://us02web.zoom.us/j/86125429140?pwd=N2pjMy9mU3RBZTFSZ1JiVGpyam9mUT09 \nMeeting ID: 861 2542 9140     Passcode: 948386 \nYou will be able to join the meeting beginning at 7:00pm and the talk will begin at 7:15pm.

SUMMARY:Field Trip - Porcupine Hike
DESCRIPTION:Winter can certainly be a dreary time\, so plan to get out for a field trip! Hemlock groves are still green and are full of animal life. We will hike into the University Nature Preserve to visit several hemlock groves. During the winter\, these areas provide shelter and a haven from the deeper snows for many mammals and birds. Highlights often include deer beds\, red squirrels\, great horned owls\, golden-crowned kinglets\, FISHER tracks\, and the main object of our labor: PORCUPINES. We will show you how to locate a porky through their sign and hopefully we will actually see one (be prepared to crane your neck\, but it is good warbler training). We will also discuss invasive species affecting hemlocks and the surge in the population of the predatory fisher. The hemlock groves are on a fairly steep hillside and if the snow is deep it can be a rigorous walk. It can also be slippery. However\, the lower hemlock grove is before the steeper portion and is fairly accessible. If the snow is deep think about snowshoes! Total walk is probably between 1 and 1.5 miles. Wear sturdy shoes with good traction and bring your binoculars. Total trip time between 1 to 2 hours. \nPark at the upper end of parking lot M and meet at the entrance to the Nature Preserve. Questions – Contact Victor Lamoureux at vlamoureux9@gmail.com or 607-770-6897. \nTHIS FIELD TRIP IS NOT OPEN TO THE PUBLIC AND YOU MUST BE A CURRENT NATURALISTS’ CLUB MEMBER TO ATTEND. Field trip is limited to 15 participants. Register to attend online at https://forms.gle/SzzsHHfXAHthCciDA

SUMMARY:Online Meeting - Forest Forensics - Reading the Forested Landscape
DESCRIPTION:Forests Past\, Present and Future \nAlmost all of the northeastern forest was cut down for lumber\, growing crops\, or grazing farm animals when the United States was colonized. Yet\, today\, we have more forest in the northeast than we did 200 years ago. What does the type of trees\, the growth form of trees\, and other signs of past human habitation tell you about what the forest you are standing in was used for in the past? How can you “read” the signs to make a hypothesis as to the land’s previous usage? I will introduce you to two wonderful books by Tom Wessels that will aid us in doing just that. We will also delve into some current problems with local forests and what they might look like in the future. \nClub member Victor S. Lamoureux is a biology professor at SUNY Broome and was introduced to this material as a student of Dick Andrus’ at Binghamton University. It has always fascinated him and he teaches the material to his ecology students each spring. \nJoin us online using this link to join the meeting:\nhttps://us02web.zoom.us/j/86125429140?pwd=N2pjMy9mU3RBZTFSZ1JiVGpyam9mUT09 \nMeeting ID: 861 2542 9140     Passcode: 948386 \nYou will be able to join the meeting beginning at 7:00pm and the talk will begin at 7:15pm.

SUMMARY:Online Meeting - What Goes There? The use of trail cameras to reveal the natural world around us.
DESCRIPTION:Club member Victor Lamoureux will show us what he’s been finding on his trail cameras. Inexpensive trail cameras (aka game cameras) are widely available. They have become mainstream for some wildlife biology studies\, but the everyday naturalist can also use these to reveal animals that share the lands around them. This talk will give some tricks and tips from 4 years of heavy trail camera use with up to 6 out at a time. Highlight pictures will be shown and some animals’ natural history will be discussed. \nVictor S. Lamoureux is a biology professor at SUNY Broome Community College\, the Program Director for the Broome County Naturalists’ Club\, and an amateur wildlife photographer. He was instrumental in the development of the hiking trails at SUNY Broome\, where some of the photos he will share were taken. \nJoin us online using this link to join the meeting:\nhttps://us02web.zoom.us/j/86125429140?pwd=N2pjMy9mU3RBZTFSZ1JiVGpyam9mUT09 \nMeeting ID: 861 2542 9140     Passcode: 948386 \nYou will be able to join the meeting beginning at 7:00pm and the talk will begin at 7:15pm.

SUMMARY:Online Meeting - Using Science to Conserve Georgia's Diamondback Terrapins
DESCRIPTION:The Diamondback terrapin (Malaclemys terrapin) is the only strictly estuarine turtle in the world. Terrapins have a relative unique ecology and a history of overexploitation. Over the last half century\, terrapin populations have declined throughout their range (Cape Cod\, MA to Corpus Christi\, TX). This talk will describe research that began in 2007 to document the state-wide status of terrapin populations in Georgia and how –over the subsequent decade – research identified patterns of human-caused terrapin mortality that led to novel management actions and local community efforts to stem terrapin declines and recover populations. \nDr. John Maerz is a Josiah Meigs Distinguished Teaching Professor and Professor of Vertebrate Ecology in the Warnell School of Forestry and Natural Resources at the University of Georgia. He is an affiliated faculty with UGA’s Center for Integrative Conservation’s ICON Ph.D. program and an adjunct professor in the Odum School of Ecology. He received his Ph.D. from Binghamton University in 2000 and was a Research Associate at Cornell University until 2005. His research focuses on the effects of terrestrial and aquatic environmental change on the ecology of wildlife – notably amphibians and reptiles; how variation in the abundance of animals affects terrestrial and freshwater ecosystem processes; and developing science-based tools to help communities effectively conserve wildlife. He has published 125 papers and book chapters on wildlife ecology and conservation\, was a Co-PI and member of the Science Advisory Committee for the National Science Foundation’s Coweeta Long-Term Ecological Research site\, and served as an Associate Editor for the Journal of Wildlife Management for 13 years. He is co-chair of the Diamondback Terrapin Working Group and chairs the Society for the Study of Amphibians and Reptiles Pre-College Program to engage high school students in amphibian and reptile biology. He is the faculty advisor to the University of Georgia Herpetological Society\, and he teaches annual courses in animal behavior\, herpetology\, and sustaining human societies and natural environments including an annual course in New Zealand and Australia. \nPlease email bcnatclub@gmail.com to get a link to join this meeting. You will be able to join the meeting beginning at 7:00pm and the talk will begin at 7:15pm.

SUMMARY:Online Meeting - In Search of Lost Frogs
DESCRIPTION:This talk by Twan Leenders will chronicle his nearly 30 years of working with endangered neotropical amphibians. Catastrophic declines in Central American amphibian populations during the late 1980s and early 1990s\, left the region’s herpetofauna decimated. Twan has been working in Central America since the early 90s\, trying to identify the drivers of this decline and tracking down some of the last surviving populations of these charismatic animals. Dividing his time between research and outreach\, Twan has used his photography and artistic abilities to increase awareness of the plight of amphibians and to energize a citizen scientist movement among young people in the region. Between encouraging natural recoveries to ex-situ captive breeding efforts\, much is happing in amphibian conservation. Twan will share stories and images from the tropics to illustrate this fascinating topic and to temporarily make us forget that it is winter in the northeast! \n \nFrom a young age\, Twan Leenders was fascinated by tropical rainforests and the exotic plants and animals that inhabit them. Growing up in a small town in The Netherlands\, he devoured every relevant book his local library had to offer. While finishing up his degree in Biology and Animal Ecology at the University of Nijmegen in the early 1990s\, Twan spent six months in the rainforest of Costa Rica to study coral snake mimicry and survey the\nherpetofauna of the rainforest canopy – from that point on there was no turning back. \nAfter living and working in various parts of Central America for more than a decade\, Twan moved to the U.S. in 2000 where he worked as a researcher in the Division of Herpetology and Ichthyology of Yale University’s Peabody Museum of Natural History. Since then\, he has worked as an Assistant Professor of Biology at Sacred Heart University in Fairfield\, CT\, and returned to the trenches of conservation research and outreach while leading the Science and Conservation Office of the Connecticut Audubon Society. As Senior Director of Science and Conservation of the Roger Tory Peterson Institute of Natural History (RTPI)\, he now applies his experience to Western New York. However\, Twan returns to Costa Rica and Panama regularly\, with or without student researchers in tow\, to band migratory birds on their wintering grounds and to study some of the planet’s most endangered amphibian populations. \nBased on the notion that all stewardship starts with education\, Twan has always been keenly interested in sharing his experience and knowledge. He has authored four books and numerous magazine and journal articles on the flora and fauna of Costa Rica\, including the very first field guide to amphibians and reptiles for that country in 2001. As an avid photographer and wildlife artist\, his images adorn the pages of these books. However\, Twan’s photographs have also appeared in publications by the National Geographic Society\, GEO\, Dorling Kindersley’s ‘Eyewitness’ publications\, and numerous other magazines and books. His field guide illustrations are currently in use for educational purposes and displays at the Royal Ontario Museum\, Yale Peabody Museum of Natural History\, the California Academy of Sciences\, and Smithsonian’s ‘BioMuseo’ in Panama City\, Panama. \nIn 2013\, Twan joined the “Meet your Neighbours” Global Biodiversity Project as a contributing photographer and administrator. Participants in this project use striking high-key photography to draw attention to the plants and animals living in their backyards – wherever on the planet these backyards may be. Combining his love for photography and his work at RTPI\, Twan tries to follow in the footsteps of the Institute’s namesake\, Roger Tory Peterson\, to provide the public with the tools and knowledge to better understand — and hopefully better protect – the fascinating biodiversity that surrounds us. \nPlease email bcnatclub@gmail.com to get a link to join this meeting. You will be able to join the meeting beginning at 7:00pm and the talk will begin at 7:15pm.

SUMMARY:Online Meeting - From the Andes to the Amazon
DESCRIPTION:For our February program we welcome back guest speakers Sam Wilson and Margeaux Maerz who will help us explore Northern South America which has the highest biodiversity on the planet – Colombia and Peru are number one and number two for bird species diversity. Once notorious for drug cartels\, Pablo Escobar\, and violence\, Colombia is now welcoming tourists back in thanks to a renewed peace agreement between FARC rebels and the government. Peru’s tourism industry has boomed with world renowned destinations and UNESCO world heritage sites like Machu Picchu. Come enjoy a photographic journey from urban centers to the Andes cloud forest and off-the-grid wilderness locations in the Amazon basin where it truly feels like stepping back in time to a place where giant macaws\, river dolphins\, big cats\, and rare primates still roam undisturbed by human presence. \n \nSam Wilson has been working in conservation and environmental education for the past 10 years\, including for NJ Audubon as a naturalist at the Nature Center in Cape May\, New Jersey and at Camp Denali in Denali National Park as a Naturalist Guide. Sam is also an occasional writer and photographer for magazines like Cape May Magazine\, Audubon\, and American Birding Association’s Birding. \nMargeaux Maerz is originally from Vestal\, but has found a way to spend most of her time traveling. After graduating from the University of Georgia with her degree in Ecology\, Margeaux worked as an environmental educator and naturalist guide for various non-for-profits and government organizations along the east coast and abroad. Margeaux worked for 3 years at Camp Denali as a Naturalist Guide and a variety of other environmental programs. \nSam and Margeaux have traveled extensively in the past 3 years in Alaska\, Asia\, and North America\, all in pursuit of birds and wildlife. Their most recent adventure included a 3-month stint traveling South America – from the Andes to the Amazon. \nPlease email bcnatclub@gmail.com to get a link to join this meeting.
