SUMMARY:Snowy Owls: A Project SNOWStorm Update
DESCRIPTION:Join Maine Audubon’s second annual All Chapter Speaker event on Thursday Feb. 5 at 6pm. We’re hosting acclaimed author and naturalist Scott Weidensaul for a discussion about Snowy Owls and his work with Project SNOWStorm.  \nTo join us for a lively\, free\, virtual discussion about these incredible birds\, register here. \nProject SNOWstorm launched in 2013\, and is now one of the world’s largest collaborative research projects focusing on Snowy Owls\, staffed by a largely volunteer team of scientists\, banders\, and wildlife veterinarians. Project SNOWstorm uses innovative science to understand Snowy Owls\, and to engage people in their conservation through outreach and education.  \nWeidensaul has written more than 30 books\, including his widely acclaimed Living on the Wind: Across the Hemisphere with Migratory Birds (North Point 1999)\, which was a finalist for the 2000 Pulitzer Prize. In addition to writing about wildlife\, Weidensaul is an active field researcher whose work focuses on bird migration. Weidensaul co-founded Project SNOWstorm\, which uses cutting-edge tracking technology to study snowy owls. \nHis new book\, The Return of the Oystercatcher\, due to be published in April 2026\, is available for pre-order.

SUMMARY:Field Trip: Rockland Breakwater & Samoset Resort
DESCRIPTION:The Rockland Breakwater is an inviting place to bird in winter if temperature\, tides\, and wind cooperate. A walk out on the Breakwater takes you into the middle of Rockland Harbor to where the sea birds can be found. In winter\, it is a great spot for Purple Sandpipers\, loons\, grebes\, scoters\, Common Goldeneyes\, Black Guillemots\, and sea ducks. \nNavigating the uneven and widely spaced granite blocks requires concentration\, so we highly recommend you be stable on your feet for this walk\, and wear sturdy boots. Dress warmly as the sea breeze in February is cold! \nAll are welcome! You don’t need to be an Audubon member or an experienced birder. To sign up\, please send an email to Mael Glon (midcoastfieldtrips at maineaudubon.org) with your name and phone number. \nOur trip leader will meet you in the Breakwater parking lot at the end of Samoset Road at 9 am. Depending on time and interest\, we may continue our walk onto the adjacent Samoset grounds.

SUMMARY:Notes from the Hummingbird Corridor
DESCRIPTION:In October of 2021\, a month after the Ruby-throated Hummingbirds left her gardens in Maine\, herbalist and author Deb Soule felt a compelling nudge. The hummingbirds asked Deb to follow their eastern migration route south the following autumn. Without hesitation\, she said yes\, and asked her friend\, poet Laura Brown-Lavoie\, to join her. \nJoin us in person at the Camden Library to hear about Notes from the Hummingbird Corridor\, a record of their pilgrimage\, following these small birds on their thousands-mile migration journey\, and connecting with fellow humans along the way. Through poetry\, prose\, and practical gardening advice\, Deb and Laura offer readers an invitation into relationship with these iridescent interdimensional beings who whiz from bloom to bloom across meadows\, mountains\, and the Gulf of Mexico. \n“How lucky that the cross-pollination of Deb Soule and Laura Lamb Brown-Lavoie’s thoughtful\, caring\, curious minds and hearts has sprouted this beautiful book. Cohesive and innovative\, Notes from the Hummingbird Corridor is a wonderful reminder that wisdom can be found and carried in so many differently-shaped vessels—poem\, prayer\, essay\, seed\, hummingbird\, cross-country roadtrip. I am so moved by this multi-modal collaboration\, which is as splendid to read and look at as it is to learn from.”\n    —Sarah Kay\, author of A Little Daylight Left\, kaysarahsera.com
