SUMMARY:Bird Club Meeting: BirdCast
DESCRIPTION:Thursday\, April 17th at 6:30pm \nAndrew Farnsworth Cornell Lab of Ornithology – \nBird Migration in the Era of Big Data: BirdCast perspectives on the future of monitoring migrating birds. \nJoin us at 6:30pm for the April 17th meeting of the Horicon Marsh Bird Club.  Andrew Farnsworth of the Cornell Lab of Ornithology will be speaking to us about BirdCast.  BirdCast is a collaborative project that employs the expertise of computer scientists and ornithologists to harness the power of big data to study movements of birds and more broadly\ncapture the spectacle of bird migration. Andrew will be speaking\, in particular about monitoring bird migration with data collected by citizen scientists and the US weather surveillance radar\nnetwork\, among other sources of information\, to forecast where\, when\, and how many birds will migrate and to observe these movements in near real-time at a continental scale. \nAndrew Farnsworth is a Visiting Scientist in the Center for Avian Population Studies at the Cornell Lab of Ornithology. Andrew began birding at age 5 and quickly developed his long-standing fascinations with bird migration.  He and his collaborators employ science to educate and to engage audiences in conservation actions\, notably with respect to reducing light pollution impacts on nocturnally migrating birds.  He lives in New York\, NY with his wife Patricia and two daughters Aja and Elle. \nThe meeting is open to the public and is held at the Horicon Marsh Education and Visitor Center located at N7725 Highway 28\, Horicon\, WI. You can also join us via Zoom. \nRegister at https://us02web.zoom.us/meeting/register/tZUlde2hpj0uGd1WzhODOPQkii_IanmJsmtu
