UVBirders-
This talk tomorrow (Friday) could be very interesting and important... 
while also providing a great excuse to have dinner in Montpelier. 
Perhaps worth going even earlier, and searching for the Hawk Owl?
This event is sponsored by the North Branch Nature Center, I believe.

**Grassland Bird Conservation in Vermont**

***Friday, January 14, 7pm @ the Unitarian Church of Montpelier (130 Main St.)
**Fee: by donation*
Vermont is home to a suite of 9 species of birds that nest in our hayfields,
pastures, and recently abandoned agricultural land.  These species have
shown steep, long-term population declines as a result of changes in land
use practices.  Partially a response to the decrease in agricultural land in
Vermont and partially a response to more intensive agricultural management,
many of these species are rare, threatened, or endangered in Vermont.  In
2002, *Allan Strong* and *Noah Perlut* began a study to examine the effects
of agricultural management practices on grassland birds.  Their research
into the breeding biology of these species has led to a suite of management
practices that are designed to simultaneously maintain grassland bird
populations without affecting the farmer's bottom line.
