Coming Events

We have several great events planned. Watch this space for more details later. Please note than none of these events are available for registration yet.

4th Annual Conference

May 16 - 18, 2008
Mohican State Forest

Mohican is one of Ohio's most significant sites for breeding birds. About 24 species of warblers breed there annually, including many rare species associated with the pristine, old-growth hemlock ravines, like Canada Warbler. Over 100 sprecies of breeding birds nest in Mohican each year, including many noteworthy boreal breeders like Winter Wren and Hermit Thrush. There will still be plenty of migrants passing through, too, so the overall conference will be a big one.

Midwest Raptor Conference

September 26 - 28, 2008
Maumee Bay State Park

Join the Ohio Ornithological Society and our partner the Southeastern Michigan Raptor Research group for an interesting event that's all about birds of prey and their incredible fall passages around Lake Erie. We'll have an interesting and expert slate of speakers, capped by keynote speaker Brian Wheeler. Brian is author of Peterson Field Guides: Hawks and A Photographic Guide to North American Raptors. He is one of North America's foremost authorities on raptors, and is an outstanding photographer. Field trips will include a visit to Lake Erie Metropark in nearby Michigan, where late September raptor migrations can be phenomenal.

Lakeside, Ohio
