SUMMARY:FISM Winter Meeting: Seagrass-safe Boating
DESCRIPTION:The Fishers Island Seagrass Management (FISM) Coalition will convene its winter meeting in March to discuss strategy and messaging to educate NY and CT boaters about seagrass-safe boating. This will include lively discussions on the elements to include in the outreach and how to engage people with the mission.\nWHEN: Friday\, March 3\, 2023\, 12:00-1:30 pm\nWHERE: Zoom – email fishersislandseagrass@gmail.com for the invite information\nWHO: All members of the community are welcome! Non-coalition members will be observers and have the opportunity to comment at the end of the meeting. \nThe FISM Coalition’s community-led effort to Save Our Seagrass encompasses a goal to reduce the physical damage caused by recreational boaters around the island. Since boating damage rarely occurs in the same location and frequently creates bare patches in eelgrass beds\, the cumulative damage to our Fishers Island eelgrass is extensive.\n\nTo learn more about how boating can damage eelgrass; please visit the FISM website: \nfiseagrass.org/seagrass-safe-boating\n\nAlso\, an exciting new Eelgrass Collaborative Network is forming\, and the FISM Coalition will be part of that group. So come to the meeting to learn how this new group will help us achieve our goals!\n\nPhoto by Sally Wakeman

SUMMARY:Journeys: Ospreys\, Technology\, and an Author
DESCRIPTION:An illustrated talk by ornithologist Rob Bierregaard that brings to light several decades of research on the ecology and migratory patterns of Ospreys\, work that has been greatly aided by evolving technology. This virtual talk also reveals Rob’s own journey to becoming a first-time children’s book author.\nTime: Sunday\, March 19\, 2023 @ 4:00 – 5:00 P.M.\nPlace: VIRTUAL via Zoom\nRob Bierregaard \nBetween 2000 and 2017 Rob Bierregaard and his colleagues placed GPS satellite transmitters on 47 adult and 61 juvenile Ospreys from South Carolina to the Avalon Peninsula in Newfoundland\, Canada. Most of these were birds tagged in southern New England\, including two from Fisher’s Island\, nine from the Westport River in southeastern MA\, and four Rhode Island Ospreys from Conanicut Island. \nDuring the 18 years Rob and his team studied Osprey migration\, the technology went through three major upgrades. With each advance in the technology\, new questions about Osprey migration and ecology could be answered. Rob will describe how each of the technological innovations—a sort of journey of its own—helped us understand more and more of the mysteries of the journeys Ospreys make as they navigate from their nesting territories to South American wintering waters often more than 4\,000 miles from their nests\, how\, on a more local scale\, as they travel around their home territories in search of fish during the breeding season\, and finally\, as young Ospreys work their way into the breeding population. \nIn 2013 someone suggested that Rob write a kids’ book about his favorite Osprey. Five years later\, Belle’s Journey\, a middle-school chapter book\, was published by Charlesbridge. \n\nPlease click the link below to join the webinar: \nJoin webinar\n \nOr One tap mobile :\nUS: +16699009128\,\,87118737713# or +16694449171\,\,87118737713#\nOr Telephone:\nDial(for higher quality\, dial a number based on your current location):\nUS: +1 669 900 9128 or +1 669 444 9171 or +1 719 359 4580 or +1 253 205 0468 or +1 253 215 8782 or +1 346 248 7799 or +1 360 209 5623 or +1 386 347 5053 or +1 507 473 4847 or +1 564 217 2000 or +1 646 558 8656 or +1 646 931 3860 or +1 689 278 1000 or +1 301 715 8592 or +1 305 224 1968 or +1 309 205 3325 or +1 312 626 6799\nWebinar ID: 871 1873 7713\nInternational numbers available: https://us02web.zoom.us/u/kdr2kDfbol
