BDN advances Ph.D. student’s talk on woodcock research
In an article about woodcocks, the Bangor Daily News reported Alexander Fish, a University of Maine doctoral candidate in wildlife biology who studies woodcocks, will present research findings May 10 at the Fields Pond Audubon Center in Holden. Fish uses GPS tracking to study the birds’ migratory patterns to try to learn more about their population decline, according to the BDN. His free talk will begin at 7 p.m., preceded by a potluck at 6 p.m., and is part of the Maine Audubon Penobscot Valley Chapter’s annual meeting.
