The Everglades Agricultural Area, south of Lake Okeechobee, is well known for spectacular assemblages of waders, migrant shorebirds, wintering waterfowl and other wildlife. Elise Pearlstine of the University of Florida's Everglades Research and Education Center will present findings from a five-year survey of birds and other wildlife found in the area, and will discuss upcoming research in areas being converted to Stormwater Treatment Areas.

Membership meetings are open to the public and held at the Doc Thomas House, 5530 Sunset Dr., near Red Rd. The doors open at 7:30pm and the program begins at 8:00pm. Early-birds may join us at 6:00pm for a pre-meeting dinner at Beverly Hills Café, on Sunset Drive across from Doc Thomas House. Call (305) 667-7337 for more information.
