The Power of Connecting: How Shared Curiosity Leads to Scientific Discoveries
Join author Maria Ruth and SSBA board members Rachel Holland and Melinda Wood for a triple header presentation on how birders of all skill levels and interests can make important discoveries about our local birds.
All three speakers met each other through serendipitous bird-related activities in 2023. Soon after, they began collecting data on Pigeon Guillemots on Eld Inlet through a long-running community science project known as the Salish Sea Guillemot Network.
