Transcript | The Spoonbill A Publication of the Ornithology Group Of the Houston Outdoor Nature Club March 2001 April Program Birds and Migration We all know that many birds migrate, but why do they migrate, and how do they migrate? Why would a bird living in the tropical rain forests of Central America go all the way to the permafrost ofthe Arctic tundra to breed and raise a family? Why do some birds migrate nearly two months earlier than others? How do they know when to start? Why would a bird that breeds in Siberia fly all the way to Alaska, then south to Central America, when there are much closer and more direct jungles in southern Asia? Don Richardson will present the April program on why and how birds migrate. Don is a regular writer and lecturer about birds and teaches a beginning birding field course. 7:00 p.m. Monday, April 2, 2001 Bayland Community Center 6400 Bissonnet Learning Corner 6:30 p.m. Warbler Identification David Bradford will provide tips on warbler identification.
