Eric Hanson – of the Vermont Loon Recovery Project- will present a slide show and talk as part of the Mad Birder’s upcoming showing of Gail Osherenko’s documentary: The Dark Side of the Loon.  Eric has been the Loon Biologist with the Vermont Center for Ecostudies’ Loon Recovery Project since 1998 and has studied loons for almost two decades.  Eric’s knowledge about this unique and intriguing bird species will make an already special evening even more interesting.  Join us on Saturday April 24th at 7:30PM at Graves Farm Road in Waitsfield.  (at intersection of Joslin Hill, Common, and North Rds, turn east on East Rd – Joslin Hill becomes East Rd.  Graves Farm is first road on right).  The Reillys are the fourth driveway on the right.   Please carpool if possible, parking is limited.  Pat Folsom will meet people to carpool at Shaws at 7 PM.  Bring a dessert or wine to share.
