Activity: Fine Art Bird Prints.
Just in time for holiday gift-giving, at our December 9 meeting we will display more than 20 fine art prints from the collection of Jim and Deb Wheeling. The Wheelings are generously donating the prints to Conococheague Audubon, and we are offering them to you. Any voluntary contribution would be welcome. The prints will be available for viewing starting at 6:30 PM.
Program Topic : Diversity in the Andes.
Then at 7 PM, the December program, Diversity in the Andes, will highlight the spectacular plumage of bird species in “the birdiest place in the world.” After learning how folks in Colombia and Ecuador are benefiting from birding tourism, the program will finish with a colorful slide show of beautiful equatorial birds.
