Our

in many calendars and magazines. Since February 2004 Mr. Harrison
has been engaged in the on-going Ivory-billed Woodpecker research
project in eastern Arkansas.
Field
trips Saturday will include the locales you have grown to know
and love in the Nashville area such as Radnor Lake State Natural
Area, Shelby Bottoms and Beaman Park, a new 1,200 acre Metro/Davidson
County park. Sunday will provide an opportunity to check these
areas again, and explore others.
Looking
forward to seeing everyone in Nashville in the Spring,
