SUMMARY:Sussex Bird Club | Evolution Runs Amok
DESCRIPTION:Online & In-Person\n\n \n\nAs a bird club\, we tend to respect 
 all forms of nature. This month\, join The Sussex Bird Club in-person in 
 the library or online to hear naturalist Michael Fritz speak about 
 something different\, what’s found in the seas. All of us are familiar 
 with biodiversity hotspots like the rainforests of South America\, Africa 
 and Asia\, but many of us forget that the oceans hold many times more 
 species of animals than the land. In this presentation. Fritz will give a 
 tiny peek at some of the incredible biodiversity that exists beneath the 
 surface of the sea. The epicenter of marine biodiversity is in the center 
 of the "Coral Triangle" which includes Indonesia\, the Philippines\, and 
 Micronesia. This presentation looks not just at the colorful coral reefs\, 
 but also the nearby "muck" and sand areas where animals have evolved some 
 amazing symbiotic relationships and devious methods of 
 camouflage.\n\nMichael Fritz is a naturalist from Cape May\, NJ where he's 
 led countless birding field trips over the last 40  years. Marine Biology 
 is his favorite topic and he's a frequent leader on whale watching and 
 pelagic trips on both coasts. You may have met him if you ever participated 
 on the pelagic trips of Lewes. He's an amateur underwater photographer and 
 has been scuba diving for over 35 years. He has dived (and birded) at many 
 of the best diving locations around the world.\n\nThe Sussex Bird Club's 
 primary objective is to promote the knowledge and enjoyment of wild birds 
 through guided field trips and monthly meetings about various aspects of 
 birding. Meetings are open to all and beginning birders are always 
 welcome.\n\n\nNOTE: this session is available to attend in-person or 
 through Zoom. You MUST REGISTER and indicate which you prefer. \n\nIf you 
 need assistance with registration or getting your Zoom invitation\, please 
 email us.\n\nBasic written instructions for using Zoom may be found here 
 and a brief video tutorial may be found here. Closed captioning is 
 available for all our sessions. Information on enabling closed captioning 
 in Zoom may be found here.
