May 14, 2008 - Rainforest butterflies in Costa Rica: where are the passion vines?

Biologist John Smiley spent much of the 1970's working in the central American rainforest looking for the passion vine host plants of uniquely colorful Heliconius butterflies. What he found was an intricate world of interacting colors, chemicals, predators and unusual plant structures, illustrating the creative power of evolution in action.

June 11, 2008 - Annual ESAS Picnic

Join us and bring a friend to our Chapter’s annual picnic at the home of board member Phill and Brenda Kiddoo. We will meet at 6 p.m at 2281 Longview Street, off of South Barlow, in west Bishop. Please bring your own table settings, folding chairs, and food and beverage to share. This is a friendly and pleasant event and gives all of us the opportunity to talk to fellow Audubon members and share what wildlife and wildflowers we have seen. At past potlucks we have run out of food before everyone has been served, so we ask that everyone bring a bit more. We will also elect the board of directors and officers for the coming year. If interested in being a board member, please contact us at the May membership meeting. Questions? Call Joan Benner at 938-2929 or Phill and Brenda Kiddoo at 872-7226.
