No. 128

A Northern Water-Thrush, aka The Water-Wagtail, graciously allowed us to add him to the Library's Catalog of Birds this September when he was spotted by Librarian Brad Snelling. Of the water-thrush, it is written ... "This species always has a yellowish tinge to the under parts and the stripes beneath are narrow, but prominent. These Warblers are found in tangled underbrush near water. They have a habit of continually flirting their tails, thus giving them the local name of Water-Wagtail. Their call is a sharp metallic "chink ”; their song a loud , liquid “quit-quit-quit-que-quewe-u .” Breeds from the northern edge of the U. S. northwards; winters south of U. S."

Eastern Chipmunks in the Northern Forest

Dr. Pam Freeman will discuss behavior of eastern chipmunks. She will also answer the common campus question, "What are you doing out there in the forest?" Pam uses the friendly chipmunk system to introduce undergraduate students to research and get them (and maybe you, too) hooked on science.
