*Please note that our October and November speakers are switched. Matt Jeffery will be in Panama this Wednesday so Kurt Schwarz will jump ahead one month and Matt will come in November. Our newsletter, The Chat, shows this correction.

October 20 (Wednesday),  "Aimophila Adventures." Southeast Arizona is known for such showy species as Elegant Trogon and Flame-colored Tanager. While MOS Conservation Chair Kurt Schwarz admits that he did seek out these species, he also took advantage of a summer in Arizona to seek out the ultimate LBJs that make Maryland sparrows look downright garish. Kurt will share his uncharacteristically in-focus pictures (his words!) of Botteriā€™s and Rufous-crowned Sparrows, as well as his more-typical grainy and out-of-focus shot of a Rufous-winged Sparrow, plus those gaudy Flame-colored Tanagers and Varied Buntings.

Meetings are held at the Potomac Presbyterian Church, 10301 River Road (1/4 mile past Falls Road in Potomac). Doors open at 7:00 pm, refreshments at  7:30 pm, meeting begins at 8:00 pm. 

All are welcome!
