Napa-Solano Audubon - The Big Year, Napa Style
Inspired by books like The Big Year and Kingbird Highway, Napa residents Mike and Wendy Schackwitz attempted their own Big Year in 2015. Their efforts took them from San Diego to New Brunswick, from the Florida Keys to Nome, Alaska, and almost everywhere in between. Mike will talk about the triumphs, trials, and tribulations of doing a big year, and what they learned along the way.
Mike Schackwitz has been birding casually for 15 years, while working as a Program Manager at Microsoft on services like Hotmail and MSN Messenger. Which had nothing to do with birds, but was still fun. Come join us for this delightful presentation, free and open to the public.
