Learn about the Darien Land Trust, Thursday, May 6 at 7 PM

We are pleased to announce a special presentation by the Darien Land Trust, entitled Becoming a Positive Force for Nature.

Thursday, May 6 at 7 PM

Aided by vivid slides that bring out nature's full colors, the Darien Land Trust will reveal how it is becoming a positive force of nature. The presentation will include a screening of the short film, "The State of the Birds," created by the Cornell Ornithological Lab. The film asks the question, "How will the impacts of climate change influence our bird populations and their habitats?"

Shirley Nichols, Executive Director of the Darien Land Trust, will highlight the accomplishments of the organization this past year and describe many of the projects that are currently underway.

Den Frelinghuysen, Co-chair of Stewardship for the Darien Land Trust, will address why it is important to provide natural habitat for birdlife, and how improving habitat for birds also improves habitat for us all. He will show examples of recent stewardship projects based on that objective.

Chris Filmer, Co-chair of Stewardship, will present an intimate bird's-eye view of a local backyard, and how just a few changes can make a huge difference in becoming a positive force for nature.

With the beautiful spring weather we're having these days, now is the perfect time to learn about and explore the stunning landscapes in our local community. Please join us!
