SUMMARY:Proposed Name Changes to Birds
DESCRIPTION:John “Barny” Dunning is a Professor of Wildlife Ecology in the Department of Forestry and Natural Resources at Purdue. Join Barny as he presents a program about the upcoming proposed name changes for birds. The American Ornithological Society has proposed changing the common names of all birds that were named after specific people. This has been proposed as an action to make birding more welcoming and open to all people\, but has been criticized by many people. Barny will go over the reasoning why professional ornithologists have decided to take this step\, and give pros and cons on whether it should be done.

SUMMARY:Coyotes with Gerrian Albers\, Indiana Department of Natural Resources
DESCRIPTION:Coyotes illicit a range of emotions in people. They are native to Indiana and have an interesting history in the state\, but their populations were very low for a long time\, giving many the perception we didn’t have coyotes for many decades. Coyotes are adept at living in all types of habitats\, including urban areas\, and this has allowed them to thrive in Indiana. Join Indiana’s furbearer biologist as she talks about all things coyote.

SUMMARY:Cerulean Warbler Research - Dr. Kamal Islam
DESCRIPTION:Join us this May for a discussion with Dr. Kamal Islam—Professor of Wildlife Biology at Ball State University. Dr. Kamal Islam has been conducting research since 2000 focused on investigating factors that may be contributing to the decline of Cerulean Warbler breeding populations in southern Indiana. He and his students have conducted baseline studies on distribution\, relative abundance\, and characteristics of territories\, including spacing\, song perch selection\, and vocalization behavior. Currently\, they are focused on breeding biology and the effects of past silvicultural practices on Cerulean Warbler abundance. He will be presenting the findings of his research during our program.
