General Membership Meeting - Wednesday, February 24, 2010 - 7:15 p.m. Vestal Library, Vestal NY

DAUPHIN ISLAND, ALABAMA - Dan Watkins will present. Dauphin Island is a premier birding hotspot and migrant trap because of its location in the Gulf of Mexico. It is often the first land encountered by northward flying migrants out of South America and they often land tired and famished on the island. Dan will discuss the trip he regularly leads to the island each April and discuss how he got started doing this trip and what people can expect on Dauphin at this time of year.
