October 21, 2025: Science Talk and Speaker Information Historic Bird Collections: A Time Machine for Bird Conservation & a Gateway for Avian Appreciation Topic: Dr. 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.) Speaker: Dr. 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 programs focused on bird populations.
