Lynn Gratz will give an introduction to her upcoming Nature Calgary talk, Protecting Wetlands in Alberta. Lynn lives by Marsland Basin, a great birding hotspot east of Calgary. She has become an expert in the law concerning wetlands and how to protect them. Lynn will speak at about 7:30.

In addition, a few local birders/photographers will be selling their 2016 bird calendars at the event. Bring cash and get your calendars for Christmas presents or for yourself!
We will be meeting in a private room in the back of the building. When you arrive at the front lobby, the door may be locked so you will have to buzz and wait for someone to let you in. Then proceed to the back, past the food counter. There will be signs with directions.
If you are planning to attend and need directions or any more information, send us an email at birdscalgary@gmail.com.
