The LCBC will meet on Thursday, March 12, at 7 p.m. at the North Museum of Nature and Science, 400 College Ave., Lancaster. Jim Cubie will present "You Can Save 75 Birds Right in Your Own Yard."

People can save birds in their own yards by protecting them from deadly window collisions. The presentation will include several videos, a quiz challenging attendees to find birds in a special habitat, and a free "Consumer Guide to Bird Window Collision Prevention." Cubie will discuss strategies for preventing bird window collisions in the community and nationally.

Cubie is a retired attorney who has worked for conservation in many different venues. Since 2019, he has dedicated himself to the prevention of bird window collisions and the promotion of native plants. He works closely with bird window collision expert Daniel Klem of Muhlenberg College. He is married to Doreen Cubie, a widely published freelance writer specializing in wildlife conservation.
