Chapter Meeting - April 24, 2013
Meet at Historic Bethabara Park Visitor Center. Social half-hour starts 7:00 p.m. Business Meeting/Program at 7:30 p.m.
Topic: "Birds of Belize"
Guest Speaker: David Disher
Forsyth Audubon member David Disher's programs always are popular. Last year, David and his wife Susan traveled to Belize and no doubt brought back some wonderful photoraphs along with some travel tips. This program will include information about some prime birding locations during spring migration in Belize. In April Belize's manageable number of resident tropical species combine with species that are migrating north toward their breeding grounds in the United States. Good lodges, good food, and great birding, what more could you ask for?
