THE 32 Shoppers Square, Goderich 524-9431 S'hit:13/3.E Past Events Geoff Walker went to the Whitechurch meeting place September 20, but he did not see any other members. To add to the misfortune of bad weather, a parade in Lucknow held him up. He did get to John Miles' station and saw some banding, but it was too wet a day for a good outing. Seven members spent two hours on several subjects at the November 16 meeting in Pine River United Church. Ruth Walker took fossils for examination and discussion. Bill Pace showed prints of past club events and other wildlife. Bird -call tapes were played and the birds identified. Tom Lobb talked on the subject of bluebirds. Christmas Bird Count Meet at the home of Joe and Crystal Burgess on January 3. Start -off will be 8 a.m. but people arriving later can probably be formed into groups. Bring some food and we will have a pot luck lunch. Phone Joe Burgess or Geoff Walker for full instruc- tions and directions. John Miles, Box 659, New Hamburg, NOB 2G0 (519-662-3419) would like to receive reports of all rare, usual first and last sightings for the season plus any unusual numbers (e.g. 1000 golden plovers). He wanted these records for all of Huron Coun- ty for submission to American Birds, for which publication he is the sub -regional editor for Huron County. If there is suffi- cient interest, John will also maintain a list of all bird species seen within a radius of 40 km of Amberley. This tabulation will com- mence January 1, 1987, and will be updated in the newsletter. Bruce County records should be sent to Joe Johnston in Wiarton. Regular Meetings Arrangements have been made with Pine River United Church for the club to meet there at 8 p.m. on the fourth Tuesday of each month during the season. With regular monthly meetings and a membership of 50 plus children, it is hoped 0 that attendance will improve. The club can b 'ng in good speakers if they can be agsured of good attendance. Coming Events The theme for the January 27, 1987 meeting is bird feeders. Geoff Walker has donated a feeder as a door prize. The February 24, 1987 meeting will feature a talk on the Niagara Escarpment by Don McLeod, geography teacher in Kincardine. Dates and places for the late winter and spring field trips will be decided soon. The possibilities include the following: Canoe- ing on the Maitland River near Peter Latinga's, bird -nesting spots along Pine River near Point Clark, Robert Purves ,Lucknow place, a carver in the Nile area, orchids ,on the Bruce Peninsuls, and MacGregor Point.
