Announcing the first Weekender of the upcoming Fall Season. Once again Mel Cooksey and Larry Jordan will host a program focused on migrating shorebirds to the Texas Coast. This Weekender will be held again at the Comfort Inn on Ennis Joslin Road in Corpus Christi, but the dates are earlier at the request of Mel. Mel notes that the height of shorebird migration on our coast is in mid-August, so he requested to do this program on the weekend of August 15-17, 2014. Once again this event will be capped at 30 participants and the fee will be $75.00. Unfortunately I will be out of the country at that time so I need those interested in attending to notify me and pay before the 9th of August. This will secure your space. Last year's workshop was a major success with everyone expressing their gratitude to Mel and his helpers. A Friday evening class will be followed by a Saturday morning field trip. Saturday afternoon the group will reconvene for another class, followed by a late afternoon field trip. The final event will be another field trip on Sunday morning. To sign up for this class please email me at irasciblej@xxxxxxxxx <mailto:irasciblej@xxxxxxxxx> and I will hold you place for this Weekender.
