You are welcome to join the Baltimore Bird Club's lecture series on  
Tuesday, March 2nd at 7:00 pm.  This month Joan Cwi will present Dan  
Viens documentary film "On the Wing" about the celebrated migration of  
the west coast Vaux's Swifts at the Chapman Elementary School in  
Portland Oregon.  The film is a colorful tapestry of human and avian  
life and full of information about swifts.  The film will be followed  
by a discussion comparing the Vaux's Swifts with its close cousin, our  
east coast Chimney Swift, and ends with a short video showing the BBC  
version of Chapman's swift experience.


Directions: This BBC lecture, and all lectures that follow, will be  
held at the new lecture hall which is now available to us at the  
Cylburn Arboretum Greenhouse.  At the moment, the only entrance to the  
Arboretum is via Cylburn Avenue (not Greenspring Avenue), as follows:  
 From I-83 take the Northern Parkway Exit West. After getting onto  
Northern Parkway quickly move into the left lane as Cylburn Avenue is  
the first left (approximately 0.2 miles). Continue another 0.2 miles  
on Cylburn Avenue and turn left into the the Arboretum entry. Once on  
the Arboretum grounds, bear left until you come to the Greenhouse and  
park in that parking area.  The lecture hall is off the Greenhouse  
entryway.
