[BNS_members] Reminder: Chimney Swifts Webinar Tonight

[Caroline Beddoe]

Good morning, 

A reminder of tonight's webinar on Chimney Swifts, presented by Rielle
Hoeg, Aerial Insectivore Program Technician for Birds Canada. A great
way to learn more about this fascinating migratory species at risk and
how we can help! 

Tonight, Thursday march 10th at 7:30 pm online on Zoom. Register for the
Zoom here:

Birds Canada will share information about Chimney Swift life history,
threats to Chimney Swifts and other aerial insectivores, Maritimes
SwiftWatch and the Aerial Insectivore Conservation Program, and data
summaries and trends from Atlantic Canada. In addition, they will
discuss roost trends at the Robie Tufts Nature Centre in Wolfville. They
will also offer ways for citizens to be involved in monitoring and
conserving this amazing species. 

For those who cannot attend, we will record the webinar for later
viewing!

 Coordinator, Blomidon Naturalists Society 

 Blomidon Naturalists Society activities take place in Mi'kma'ki, the
traditional, ancestral and unceded territory of the Mi'kmaq People. This
territory is covered by the "Treaties of Peace and Friendship" which did
not deal with the surrender of lands and resources but in fact
recognized Mi'kmaw title. We want to recognize that outdoor education
and play would not be possible without access to the natural world that
has been stewarded since time immemorial by the many Indigenous peoples
of this land. We acknowledge that we have a responsibility to honour and
learn about their histories and current cultures and to actively work in
support of reconciliation. We are committed to fostering respectful and
sustainable relationships with the Indigenous Peoples of this land, with
all other organisms, with the land and with the water.
