The NJMC's Jim Wright, who keeps this blog, is giving a free talk and slide show on a brief history of birds in the Meadowlands next Tuesday, July 31, at 2 p.m.
The event will be held in the Meadowlands Environment Center auditorium in DeKorte Park.
Topics will include Meadowlands birds that have made remarkable comebacks, gone extinct or rebounded in a most unexpected way.
The slide show will include a mix of archival images and recent Meadowlands nature photography.
Wright is the author of the upcoming coffee-table book, "The Nature of the Meadowlands," to be published by Schiffer Books this fall.
The talk, part of the MEC's summer senior programming, is open to all.
