The public is welcome to attend.

Program Meeting on April 16 at 7 pm
A Year in the Life of the Gambel's Quail Doris Evans
We've all seen those tiny fluff-ball quail chicks running after their parents, but few have been privileged, like Doris Evans, our speaker next month, to watch them hatch and turn into gawky adolescents and then parent broods of their own. A year in the life of the Gambel's Quail is her title, and we will be the beneficiaries of her patient skill with several types of camera. She has been teaching natural history for many years and to many audiences, children and adults, park professionals and park lovers alike. She has retired from environmental education positions with both Tucson Unified School District and the Arizona-Sonora Desert Museum, the latter as Curator of Education. Come enjoy a wonderful presentation and bring your quail-related questions and observations for Doris!
