SUMMARY:Thirsty Bird - Science on Tap - 7/10/2025
DESCRIPTION:Join us at our Thirsty Bird – Science on Tap programs this year! Guests will learn about what we do as an organization\, our programs in local communities and get a glimpse into our research. We hope you’ll join us throughout 2025 to raise a glass to birds and learn more about Bird Conservancy of the Rockies! \nEach Thirsty Bird starts at 4 p.m. From 4 – 5 p.m. you can mingle with Bird Conservancy staff and supporters\, grab a drink and get a good seat! Starting promptly at 5 p.m. a staff member will begin a presentation focused on their work at Bird Conservancy as well as fun natural history facts about local birds. These presentations are engaging\, thoughtful and you will walk away with new knowledge! Last year our Thirsty Bird events were very well attended. If you are hoping to get a seat at a table we recommend arriving at 4 p.m. Otherwise it may be standing room only. \nOur July presenter will be Dr. Jacob Job\, our Communications Director. On any given night\, dense clouds of dark\, ghostly figures pass over your head as you sleep. Maybe you never knew they were there\, but there are people out there who are deciphering all the unseen movement that happens amid the darkness. Dr. Jacob Job will reveal the mysteries of nocturnal bird migration through the monitoring of their nocturnal communications\, a field of study still very much in its infancy. \nAll Thirsty Bird events take place at Funkwerks Brewing in Fort Collins.

SUMMARY:Thirsty Bird - Science on Tap - 4/3/2025
DESCRIPTION:Join us at our Thirsty Bird – Science on Tap programs this year! Guests will learn about what we do as an organization\, our programs in local communities and get a glimpse into our research. We hope you’ll join us throughout 2025 to raise a glass to birds and learn more about Bird Conservancy of the Rockies! \nEach Thirsty Bird starts at 4 p.m. From 4 – 5 p.m. you can mingle with Bird Conservancy staff and supporters\, grab a drink and get a good seat! Starting promptly at 5 p.m. a staff member will begin a presentation focused on their work at Bird Conservancy as well as fun natural history facts about local birds. These presentations are engaging\, thoughtful and you will walk away with new knowledge! Last year our Thirsty Bird events were very well attended. If you are hoping to get a seat at a table we recommend arriving at 4 p.m. Otherwise it may be standing room only. \nOur April presenter is our Senior Research Scientist\, Arvind Panjabi. Arvind will discuss Bird Conservancy’s research on migratory grassland birds\, one of the fastest declining groups of birds in North America. This will include what we’ve learned about where they winter\, the challenges they face\, and what they need to survive. He will also share how that knowledge engages local communities and organizations in the Chihuahuan Desert in Mexico to protect and improve habitat for grassland birds so that more of these international frequent flyers can return to the prairies each spring to grace our skies. \nAll Thirsty Bird events take place at Funkwerks Brewing in Fort Collins.
