February 2025 Meeting

Tue, February 4, 7:30 – 9:00 pm
Blue Spruce Park Lodge
Speaker: Matt St Clair

Description

Todd Bird Club member Matt St Clair will present the evening’s program entitled "A Year of Birding in 2024." Matt will show photos that he has taken in Pennsylvania, including Middle Creek Wildlife Management Area, Presque Isle State Park, and Yellow Creek. A little farther afield, he’ll include shots he’s taken at Magee Marsh and Killdeer Plains in Ohio and Blackwater National Wildlife Refuge in Maryland.

Matt became interested in birding about three years ago. His spark bird was an Evening Grosbeak when a flock of them showed up in his backyard. He has slowly gained knowledge about birds and optical and camera equipment. Matt is also familiar with numerous insects, plants, and other animals. This past year he purchased a new camera with a better zoom lens. He plans to continue his education to become a Wildlife Biologist and would like to work for the Pennsylvania State Game Commission or the Western Pennsylvania Conservancy and the Pennsylvania Natural Heritage Program.

Matt is no stranger to the Todd Bird Club as he attends almost every meeting and helps to set up the room at Blue Spruce Lodge and clean up after the meeting as well. We welcome Matt to our February meeting.
