Join the Juneau Audubon Society on Thursday, October 9th at 6:30 PM for our annual elections and membership announcements, followed by our educational program, “Hemisphere Hoppers: Alaska’s Lesser Yellowlegs Project.”

Arin Underwood, a wildlife biologist with the Alaska Department of Fish and Game’s Threatened, Endangered, and Diversity Program, will share insights from ongoing efforts to track the Lesser Yellowlegs, a long-distance migratory shorebird. Learn how researchers are uncovering the birds’ nesting habits, migration routes, and the challenges they face across hemispheres—and how this information supports conservation.
