Greetings,

The Kent County Bird Club will hold its first meeting of the 2007-2008 
season on Tuesday, 11 September at 7:30 PM at Heron Point in 
Chestertown. The program for the evening will be "Twenty years of 
changing bird life: Results of the 2002-2006 Maryland/D.C. Atlas 
Project:", presented by Atlas Coordinator Walter Ellison. A number of 
the state's breeding birds have increased dramatically over the last 
twenty years, while others have declined, some alarmingly. We will 
compare range maps from the state's two bird atlases and offer some 
thoughts on the basis for changes seen over the last two decades. We 
hope to see many of you there.

Our meetings are held in Wesley Hall, in the Heron Point community at 
the end of East Campus Ave in Chestertown. East Campus Ave is the light 
on Washington Ave (MD-213) at the south edge of the Washington College 
campus. If headed north, turn right, if headed south, turn left off of 
Washington Ave. Follow East Campus Ave to the Heron Point community and 
bear right on Sassafras Dr, continuing to the large parking lot at the 
end. Wesley Hall is upstairs in the building on your right as you enter 
the parking area; enter through the large portico.

Good birding,

Walter Ellison & Nancy Martin
