How can not admire, and want to learn more about, our beautiful year-round resident the American Goldfinch? You’ll have a great opportunity Wednesday at 7:30 pm when Dr. Keith Tarvin, Associate Professor of Biology at Oberlin College, discusses his research on Goldfinch bill color and how it impacts on relationships with other finches. Dr. Tarvin’s presentation is part of the monthly meeting of the Kirtland Bird Club. All KBC monthly meetings take place at 7:30 pm at the Cleveland Museum of Natural History (1 Wade Oval Dr, Cleveland) in the downstairs classroom. Admission is free; parking is free for KBC members (you can join at the meeting or online at the KBC Web site) so bring your parking ticket in to be stamped. For more information on KBC member van trips, meetings, membership, volunteer opportunities, or resources (including the authoritative book “Birds of the Cleveland Region”) please see http://www.kirtlandbirdclub.org/default1.htm Scott VanValkenburg, KBC President ______________________________________________________________________ Ohio-birds mailing list, a service of the Ohio Ornithological Society.
