For the sixth consecutive winter, the LBIF hosts interactive lecture and discussion programs that tackle today’s most pressing scientific, environmental, and sustainability issues that directly relate to local communities. This program is free and open to everyone, will include light refreshments before each program and includes a question and answer session with the speaker following the main presentation.
Presenter: Ben Wurst, Habitat Program Manager, Conserve Wildlife Foundation of NJ
Did you know that in 1974 only 50 osprey nests were left in NJ? Learn about the historical and current issues that the ospreys face as well as what’s being done to assist these sea hawks. Ben will discuss how major policy changes and nesting assistance have helped the NJ osprey population to increase exponentially and where the most help is needed to continue the increase for these important shore residents.
This talk is free and open to the public.
