Subject: Re: [NatureNS] Thirty Years Later Expedition presentations at the Nova 
Scotia Museum of Natural History

1) 22 September: "Stalking the Wild Conspicuous" -- Schueler/Karstad 
presentation on 30 Years Later Expedition research.

place: Nova Scotia Museum of Natural History, 1747 Summer Street, Halifax, NS 
44.64532N 63.58451W
presenters: Frederick W. Schueler and Aleta Karstad
time: 7:30 pm
Admission: FREE

The 30 Years Later Expedition is a transCanada Biological Survey launched in 
partnership with the Canadian Museum of Nature, primarily revisiting sites where 
Fred & Aleta have made observations and collections... since 1970... ...began 
life as a birder, but switched to then-neglected but conspicuous Amphibians in 
graduate school, a pattern the couple has followed since, documenting the ranges 
and variation of other kinds of conspicuous but neglected organisms...

They will discuss the results of the first year of the expedition: worm-ravaged 
old-growth woods in Renfrew County... giant Carp and Dog-strangling Vine east of 
Toronto...  and this month's pursuit of the partially-alien giant grass, 
Phragmites, across Nova Scotia.

The full notice is at

2) 25 September, at the same location... "Plein Air Painting with Aleta Karstad" 
workshop: Out-of-doors painting in oils or acrylic

time: all day: 10:00 - 12:00 indoors talk, then paint-out from 12:30 on
registration fee: $20

30 Years Later Expedition Artist Aleta Karstad shows her recent paintings from 
Nova Scotia on the 30 Years Later Expedition biological survey, and demonstrates 
and teaches her "plein air" technique in oils on canvas for artists at all 
levels of proficiency.
