[Maine-birds] Whales and Ales

This week’s birding column in the Bangor Daily News is a twofer: http://bangordailynews.com/2012/12/28/outdoors/whale-watching-trip-perfect-for-ignoring-whales-watching-birds/

 

Not only is it about pelagic birding on Bar Harbor Whale Watch, but it’s also an invitation to try a new event from the Penobscot Valley Chapter of Maine Audubon. Zack Klyver is presenting a program on whales at the Sea Dog in Bangor this coming Friday night at 7pm. It combines two of my favorite concepts: nature and beer. The program is free. The beer isn’t. We’ll get two chances to see how successful this type of social/educational event is because on February 1st, we’ll try it again: “Bears and Beers” with state bear biologist Randy Cross.
