This is Audubon Society of Central Arkansas's monthly meeting. This month's speaker is Dr. Than Boves of Arkansas State University. He will talk about a research project his entire lab has helped out with, a now 8-year study on the super-charismatic, but sadly disappearing, Loggerhead Shrike. This includes studies of diet, time and energy budget, movements, pesticides, non-breeding, and breeding ecology.

Register in advance for this meeting.
