Emily Johnston (a PhD student in the FW Department), will be taking the club mist netting this Saturday at Rose Lake. We will be meeting behind the Natural Resources Building at 6:30am and head back to campus around 10/11am.The goal for this event is to demonstrate wild bird capture and handling techniques used in research. You will learn bird extraction techniques, identification, proper holds, measurements, sexing, aging, tick-plucking and more! This is a great thing to put on your resume and is always a lot of fun!
If you would like to go, but need a ride, everyone will be meeting at 6:30am behind Natural Resources to drive. Rose lake is about 15 minutes northeast of campus.
IMPORTANT: THERE IS A GOOD CHANCE OF RAIN ON SATURDAY, IN WHICH CASE, WE WILL CANCEL BY FRIDAY NIGHT AND TRY AGAIN ON SUNDAY. CHECK YOUR EMAIL ON FRIDAY NIGHT FOR A CANCELATION!
