This presentation will be given by Patrick Ertel, Project Manager at Huron Pines, a non-profit conservation organization located in northern Michigan.  Now in his 8th year with Huron Pines, Patrick has taken on more of a technical advisor and project development role. This is a good fit for him as he gets the opportunity to teach numerous audiences and blend in his cross section of experience.

Patrick’s Background: After earning his Master’s Degree from Ohio University, Patrick spent time in New Brunswick, Canada, while banding migratory songbirds. From the Bay of Fundy, Patrick moved to North Carolina, where is worked restoring oyster reefs for The Nature Conservancy. Since joining Huron Pines, Patrick has continued to hone his expertise by completing numerous fluvial geomorphology courses and presenting at Great Lakes-wide conferences and workshops.

Where has the time gone? This has been a busy summer and pretty soon fall migration will be here. I wanted to share photos from our June 12th event at Wild Birds Unlimited in Canton.  I am looking forward to seeing all of you for our special September 11th event at Bailey's Pub in Dearborn.  Happy Birding!
