SUMMARY:Science Talk! Dr Joe Keiper\, VMNH - Historic Bird Collections: A Time Machine for Bird Conservation and a Gateway for Avian Appreciation
DESCRIPTION:Our second Science Talk of the series on Tuesday\, October 21st features Dr Joe Keiper\, Executive Director at the Virginia Museum of Natural History. \n  \nHistoric Bird Collections: A Time Machine for Bird Conservation and a Gateway for Avian Appreciation \nTopic Details: \nDr. Keiper will talk about how to get into birding and citizen science\, and delve into the values of historic ornithology collections in museums. (Ornithology is the scientific study of birds.) \nSpeaker: \nDr. Joe B. Keiper is Executive Director of the Virginia Museum of Natural History. When he was a museum curator\, he was deeply involved in the biology of invertebrate animals\, but maintained a long-standing passion for birding. He interned at Chincoteague Wildlife Refuge in the summers of 1992 and 1993 where he worked on conservation projects targeting the endangered piping plover\, and was a Teaching Assistant for ornithology at Kent State University for four years following that time. He maintains his birding activities today and participates in a number of citizen science\nprograms focused on bird populations. \n  \nIf you can’t be there in person\, you can find the live video\, along with all our past Science Talks\, on the Virginia Museum of Natural History YouTube Channel.
