Belfast — A recently published study in Science reports that there are nearly 3 billion fewer birds in North America than there were in the 1970s. This news follows reports of declining insect populations and the overwhelming, far-reaching effects of climate change. What does it mean for Maine birds? How can we help?
Join National Audubon's Jeffrey Wells, Ph.D., Tuesday, Feb. 4, at 6:30 p.m. at the Belfast Free Library, 106 High St., for a closer look at these subjects, stories of hope, and how all of us can push for positive changes that deal with these issues.
Wells is vice president of boreal conservation for National Audubon and a fellow of the Cornell Lab of Ornithology. He is one of the nation's leading bird experts and conservation biologists and author of “Birder’s Conservation Handbook.”
He and his wife, Allison Childs Wells, senior director of communications and public relations at the Natural Resources Council of Maine, author the weekly column "A Bird's Tale" in the Boothbay Register and Wiscasset Newspaper and blog regularly at nrcm.org.
The couple are co-authors of a number of books, including “Maine’s Favorite Birds” and "Birds of Aruba, Bonaire & Curacao: A Site and Field Guide." He is part of the author team that recently completed the work of the late Peter Vickery's soon-to-be-published book, "Birds of Maine."
This program is free and open to all. For more information, call the library at 338-3884, ext. 10.
