Midway Atoll, the site of the crucial Battle of Midway in World War II, is now
the largest breeding site for albatrosses in the world, hosting over one million
birds. Birder and world traveler, Debby Bergh, Chair of the Audubon Vermont
Board of Directors, visited Midway during the breeding season last year. In this
illustrated program Debby will show us her photographs of breeding Laysan,
Black-footed, and rare Short-tailed Albatrosses as well as many other creatures
that call Midway home. Among these are endangered Hawaiian Monk Seals, Green Sea
Turtles, and Bonin Petrels.
This program is free and open to the public. For more information send an e-mail
