AOS- 1978 Spring Meeting

Published in 1978

We had a good time at the AOS spring meeting on Dauphin Island. On Friday night, Mike Dardeath, who has participated in the study with Paul Johnson, presented the Cat Island Heronry Study illustrated with color slides. Cat Island is a most important nesting place for herons and egrets with an estimated three to four thousand birds having nested there in 1977.
