The Wisconsin Society for Ornithology is pleased to announce its 73rd annual
convention and 2012 meeting to be held in Middleton on May 10-13, 2012. This
four-day gathering will include topical oral sessions; a poster session; a
banquet with speaker; and field trips to significant birding areas.
Reflecting the organization's wide-ranging membership base, the convention
will feature two themes: "Birding in Madison and South Central Wisconsin"
and "Soaring Against the Winds" - helping birders focus on the challenge of
doing good conservation at a time of public disengagement and fiscal
austerity.
The convention will be held in partnership with the Madison Audubon Society
at the Holy Wisdom Monastery, 4200 County Highway M, Middleton.

The WSO Board of Directors recently committed itself to seeking greater
participation in its endeavors by members of the academic community at both
the faculty and student level; to that end we are reinstituting its call for
academic presentations at its annual conventions. Paper and poster sessions
will be held on Saturday May 12. We particularly encourage graduate and
undergraduate students to submit abstracts for both oral and poster
presentations. Students accepted as presenters will receive complimentary
convention registration, which includes Saturday's luncheon.
Deadline for submitting proposals for paper sessions and posters is Dec. 31,
2011. Acceptances will be announced by Jan. 20, 2012.
