Hi all
The first presentation of the fall season for the Pictou Co. =
Naturalist's Club will be Wed. Sept 12 at 6:30 p.m at the New Glasgow =
Library. Helene Van Doninck, no stranger to our group, will be a guest =
speaker with a presentation on Lead Poisoning in Wildlife. See short =
summary below. Helene is currently fund-raising for a multispecies large =
raptor aviary and I thought it might be nice to have a hat present so =
that those moved might have an opportunity to help Helene with this =
project. Why not take your cheque book if you want a charitable receipt =
or some cash or coin to drop in the hat to help her in her goal. This is =
only if you are moved to do this; the presentation is free. Helene does =
some exciting and vital work to help our wildlife. You will learn lots =
for her presentation.=20
Join Helene Van Doninck, wildlife veterinarian and founder of the =
Cobequid Wildlife Rehabilitation Centre for a discussion on lead =
poisoning in wildlife.Wildlife such as bald eagles are the unintentional =
victims of lead when they ingest spent lead ammunition and fishing =
tackle. Not only is this a problem for wildlife, but the fragmenting =
behaviour of lead ammunition raises questions about food safety for =
human ingestion of lead harvested meat. Luckily this is a problem with a =
solution, as many alternatives to lead ammunition and fishing tackle =
exist and are available. Come learn about the issue, the solution and =
the hunter/angler outreach program to encourage transition to non-lead =
alternatives.=20
In October, our presentations will return to Tues- Oct 2 when John =
Crabtree will present "Edible and Poisonous Mushrooms of NS". John will =
also host a filed trip the following Sunday Oct. 7. This will be a =
limited attendance field trip (20 people) and please contact John to =
register and for details. mushroom67@lycos.com=20
John also wanted me to pass on this notice.=20
