Next 3RBC Membership Meeting(s)

Don’t Miss a Show of Photographic Art on February 1

We’ll begin our program year with an evening of members’ favorite photographs – the ever-popular “slide slam” – at the Three Rivers Birding Club meeting on Wednesday, February 1.

The meeting will be held at the Phipps Garden Center, 1059 Shady Avenue in Shadyside. Doors will open at 6:30 PM for socializing, the business meeting begins at 7:30, and the program starts at 8.

Don’t miss this opportunity to see what our extraordinary photographers have captured through their lenses lately at places near and far.

The Peregrine, particularly its online version in full color, gives us just a taste of the beauty, excitement, and fascination we always enjoy at these programs.

What's New? (1/23/2012)

   Ralph K. Bell celebrates his 97th birthday on January 27. A legend in the birding annuals of Western Pennsylvania, he is probably best known for the wonderful invitation he has extended for years to all bird watchers in Western Pennsylvania - to join him on his farm for one day each spring to share his love of birds and birding...and what adventures we have experienced with him. His daughter, Joan Bell Pattison, has asked us to send him cards and letters on this occasion and share our fond memories and favorite moments with him. Send your best wishes to Ralph K. Bell, 179 Pollock Mill Road, Clarksville, PA  15322.

  The Biggest Week in American Birding has some changes listed on the website for this year and may affect your planning. The headquarters for events, vendors and lodging has moved to Maumee Bay State Park, west of the popular bird venues at Ottawa NWR and Magee Marsh. Check the Black Swamp Bird Observatory website for more info.

  The January 2012 issue of the Peregrine is available now on-line.

  Meeting Minutes for December 7, 2011, an infamous day!!!

  The Pennsylvania Society for Ornithology has looked at the career of Paul Hess in Pennsylvania Birds, the journal of the organization. Jack Solomon has compiled a list of Paul's contributions and impressive accomplishments.

  Pennsylvania Birds magazine: See what you've been missing! By Geoff Malosh, Editor of Pennsylvania Birds. I am pleased to announce that we will now be publishing previews of the current issue of Pennsylvania Birds online, which will consist of the cover, table of contents, and a featured article. Now anyone who does not subscribe or perhaps does not even know about PSO can actually see a little bit of what they've been missing, and hopefully be encouraged to join PSO! Read more from Geoff about Pennsylvania Birds.

  We are completing ten years as an organization, and in the process, have accomplished quite a lot. Click here to review our activities.
