Harty and Whiteside on Birds & Conservation

The Florida Keys Audubon Society will hold the February edition of its monthly speaker series on Wednesday, December 5 at 6:30 p.m. at the Key West Garden Club, 1100 Atlantic Boulevard.

The speakers will be Beryn Harty and Dr. Mark Whiteside who will give a presentation called “More Feathered Friends & Conservation Issues.” The talk will be structured like a virtual bird walk. Harty will surprise Whiteside with images of birds; Whiteside will identify the species, talk abut their habits, where they can be seen, aspects of their life histories, and what conservation issues affect them. 

Whiteside, a life-long birdwatcher, is president of the FKAS. He is also Medical Director of the Florida Department of Health for Monroe County. Harty is broad-based naturalist, nature walk leader, and nature photographer. She is also a realtor. 

Admissions is free and open to anyone who is interested.
