SUMMARY:Winter Crows in the Thousands - The Lawrence Crow Roost
DESCRIPTION:Lawrence is well known for its winter crow roost\, with thousands of birds pouring in from every direction. Join us for a late afternoon trip to witness this spectacle. Participants will meet an hour before sunset at 3:30 pm. In case of bad weather\, contact Dana. \nParticipation in this field trip is limited. Contact leader by email to register and to inquire about details. Registrants will receive specific recommendations closer to the date. Meeting location will be decided at that time since the crows often choose different places to stage and roost. \nWe do not know when this roost was established. Former Brookline Bird Club president Eliot Taylor first witnessed and described the phenomenon in February of 1989. On January 3\, 2018\, trip leaders Dana and Bob estimated 14\,000 crows at the roost. How many will roost on January 18th? Join Dana and Bob to find out.

SUMMARY:Penguin Adventures in the Falkland Islands (cosponsored with Watertown Free Public Library)
DESCRIPTION:Join wildlife photographer Shawn Carey for a photographic journey through the Falkland Islands for a close up look at several species of penguins and tips for planning your own travels! Co-sponsored with the Watertown Free Public Library. \nFor this program we will explore two locations on Saunders Islands\, The Neck\, which has three nesting penguin species plus nesting Black-browed Albatross. Then onto The Rookery with its impressive colony of Southern Rockhopper Penguins and a staggering number of Black-browed Albatross. After that we will explore Sealion Island and our first look at Elephant Seals\, Sealions and the Killer Whales that prowl the waters looking to feast on them. Next up is Bleaker Island with its beautiful mile long beach where you can watch Gentoo and Magellanic Penguins as they ride the waves onto the sandy shores. Finally\, we will end our photographic adventure at Volunteer Point which has the largest nesting King Penguin population in the Falklands. \nShawn Carey (Migration Productions) produces bird and wildlife related multi-media presentations\, videos and photo workshops that have been presented all over the United States. Shawn moved from his home in Pennsylvania to Massachusetts in 1986 and started watching birds in 1988. His avid interest in photography was joined with a newfound passion for birding and he began to combine the two in 1991. \nShawn’s photos have been published in the Boston Globe\, New York Times\, Mass Audubon Sanctuary magazine\, Science magazine\, Hawk Mountain Sanctuary magazine and many others over the last 20 years. In 1997\, he started teaching bird photography workshops (Fundamentals of Bird Photography) for the Massachusetts Audubon and he is an instructor for Summer Fields Schools\non Cape Cod for Mass Audubon Wellfleet Bay Wildlife Sanctuary. \nThis will be an in-person only event.
