Painting Raffle Fundraiser A Success
Elli Sorensen’s donated painting, recently raffled to raise funds for SWNMA, was presented by Megan Ruehmann to winner Amy Erickson. Amy is appreciative, thrilled, and thinks it's absolutely beautiful. She and Megan are surveying grassland birds near Carlsbad currently (an Audubon Southwest project), so the whole scenario of passing it off in the field was fitting!
Thanks to Elli, Amy and so many others who support SWNMA!
NMOS Virtual Annual Meeting
The New Mexico Ornithological Society holds meetings each year, where academics and amateurs alike come together to present research, discuss conservation topics, and share information on bird life in New Mexico.
On the afternoons of March 26 and 27, 2021, NMOS will hold a virtual annual meeting via Zoom. Each afternoon will include a variety of presentations, with topics such as Peregrine Falcon population trends, the history of the New Mexico Bird Records Committee, and discussions on how to better document birds while in the field. All are welcome to attend with a suggested donation to NMOS to support student research scholarships.
Keep an eye on the nmbirds.org website for upcoming information on the meeting, to donate or to become a member.
