Thought some of you might be int'd in the following program. I heard very good
things about it when Dr. Mielczarek presented it to a couple of bird clubs in
Maryland and Virginia last year. The program itself will begin at about 7:30
pm.

BIRDS, EELS, AND TURTLES: MIGRATION AND MAGNETISM - Monday, November 8, 7:00
p.m. at the Rust Library (380 Old Waterford Road) in Leesburg. Dr. Eugenie
Mielczarek, an Emeritus Professor of Physics at George Mason University and
world birding traveler, has done extensive lecturing and writing on the
influence of magnetism in the migration of various animals. She will share
research findings by biologists and physicists on how animals use their
built-in abilities to successfully navigate extraordinary distances during
migration. This free program is sponsored by the Loudoun Wildlife Conservancy.
