Post-ABS meeting excursion in northern Utah, Aug. 17, 2006

We're (Theresa Pitts-Singer, Cory Vorel, and Sylvia Halkin) organizing a day trip to northern Utah for the day after the ABS meeting.

We'll visit the Bear River migratory bird refuge, at the northern tip of the Great Salt Lake, where shorebird and waterfowl numbers peak in the hundreds of thousands in mid-August; the USDA-ARS Bee Biology and Systematics Lab, which specializes in pollination of field and orchard crops by bees other than honey bees; and the coyote Predator Ecology and Behavior Project at the National Wildlife Research Center field station.
