Her illustrated talk will also discuss ongoing and new research about the conservation of the Bicknell's Thrush and what this small bird has taught scientist about both the high-elevation ecosystems of Mt. Mansfield and the tropical forests of Hispaniola, where it winters. This small, secretive, sensitive, and rare bird has been studied for 30 years.
