Thursday, April 2, 2026 – “People, Places, Birds” with Daniel Bernard
During 2025, Daniel Bernard embarked upon a journey to explore and get to know the People, Places, and Birds of the American birding world. Living on the cheap out of the back of his Subaru Crosstrek, Daniel attempted a feat never before documented: seeing 100 species of birds in each of the Lower-48 states in a single year. On his way to accomplishing this goal, Daniel birded with over 300 birders across the country and encountered an array of highs and lows—from seeing more than 200 Lifers and experiencing once-in-a-lifetime opportunities such as helping band Yellow Rails and holding an Ivory-billed Woodpecker specimen to car accidents and temperature extremes.
CAAS will meet the first Thursday of each month September 2025 through June 2026 at the Michigan Nature Association Meeting Room, 2310 Science Parkway, Okemos, MI.
Our meetings run from 7:00 to 8:00 PM and include a program with a speaker on a topic of current interest to the birding community. Our meetings are open to members and nonmembers of all ages.
