Tall Bird Tales

Known as the Yellow-crested Helmetshrike, or Prionops alberti, the species is listed as a ‘lost bird’ by the American Bird Conservancy because it had not been seen in nearly two decades. University of Texas at El Paso scientists made the discovery during a six-week expedition to the Itombwe Massif, a mountain range in eastern Democratic Republic of the Congo.

Tall Bird Tales will again highlight our annual December meeting on December 16, accompanied by holiday culinary delights and camaraderie. Bring yourselves and your anecdotes and yarns to regale fellow members with your wonderful, beautiful, harrowing or death defying birding experiences.

Great birds have shown up in Oklahoma some truly great birders have had truly great times with those and many other birds. Come out for the fun and friendship and sharing. A good time will be had by all. We gather in the round to relate a birding story or other personal event of interest and/or humor for the entire group. So, get your story straight, true or otherwise, and regale us on Monday night, December 16.

Refreshments: Everyone is encouraged to bring something to share.

Our meetings are held September through June on the third Monday of each month.  Meetings begin at 7 p.m. Visitors are always welcome.

Meeting Location:

Our meetings are held at the Will Rogers Garden center, located at the intersection of NW 36th Street and I-44. The Oklahoma City Audubon Society is neither a chapter of, nor affiliated with, the National Audubon Society.
