May Program: “Bird Communities as Bellwethers for Habitat Quality and Disturbance”
Presenters: Tim Krynak, Cleveland Metroparks Natural Resources Manager and Dr. Nathan Byer, Cleveland Metroparks Research and Database Manager
Date & Time: Tuesday, May 2, 2023 at 7:30 p.m.
Location: Zoom. Register on Eventbrite: https://birdcommunities.eventbrite.com 
Description: As natural systems become increasingly fragmented and degraded, there is a pressing need to understand the capacity of altered habitats to support native species. In this presentation, we leverage a district wide breeding bird survey with nearly 13,000 bird observations with a long-term vegetation monitoring program to demonstrate how migratory and non-migratory bird species vary in habitat preferences. Using a multispecies occupancy model, we demonstrate the importance of high-quality habitat for sensitive bird species and how modern quantitative approaches can be used to better prioritize bird species of conservation concern and assist in land management decisions for these species.

June Program: Picnic, Bird Walk, and Plant Exchange
Date & Time: Tuesday, June 6, 2023 at 6:00 p.m.
Location: Meeting in person at the Lagoon Picnic Shelter/Picnic area
Description: As we have been doing for the past couple of years, WCAS members and guests are gathering for an evening picnic, bird walk and plant exchange. The picnic is  - bring your own dinner - homemade or purchased, to enjoy in the company of other members and guests. An outdoor, charcoal grill will be started to heat or cook food items. While having dinner, peruse the selection of indoor or outdoor plants brought by members and guests. Seedlings, transplants, seeds, bulbs, small trees and shrubs, vegetable and flower plants may be available. You do not need to bring plants in order to take home plants, everything is free and ready for a loving yard. After dinner, a short bird walk around the Lagoon area will be done. Let’s see how many species we can tally. Plan to attend this event!
