Upcoming GVAS Programs

April Meeting,
Dessert, Auction and Big Year Birds

Wednesday, April 25, 2012 7:30pm

Brighton Town Hall, Downstairs Meeting Room
2300 Elmwood Ave., Brighton

Join us for a look at the Big Year Birds that the GVAS Board team will have on their list to that point. We hope the Falcon Watcher team will join us to bring us up to date on their list and on the falcons. We will be serving dessert, coffee and juice. We will also have a silent auction of small items, books, a necklace, and other great items, so come armed with dollar bills.


The Basics of Birding Course

GVAS will be offering a great birding class this spring.

Basics of Birding.

Western New York is one of the top regions in the country for birdwatching, hosting an incredible diversity of breeding and migrant species. This in-depth class will help you identify and appreciate the many species of birds, through the use of slides, hands-on equipment, and field trips.

GVAS Big Year 2012

Submitted by Jon on Sat, 02/18/2012 - 11:21am.

Join the Fun!
Did you see the movie “The Big Year” released this fall? Or maybe you attended our October program “Extreme Birder” with Lynn E. Barber. Both are about people traveling the country in attempts to see rare birds and counting as many different species as they can see in one year. The GVAS Board has decided to do a Big Year in 2012; however, we have limited ourselves to Monroe County.
