Our 35th anniversary celebration dinner in June at the Northampton Country Club was great fun and well attended. After socializing and dinner, Tom Ricardi presented a program on raptor rehabilitation including (of course) some live raptors! Thank you Stephen Baker and crew for planning such a delightful event.

PROGRAMS—And now we begin another year. David Sibley is our speaker for the September 9 meeting.

FIELD TRIPS—Field trip chair Carol Mardeusz will be posting field trips soon. Anyone interested in leading a field trip, or who wants the club to schedule a trip to a specific location or to seek some particular types of birds, please contact Carol at [email protected]. She’ll be delighted to hear from you.
