Season’s Greetings !

The Winter Solstice is upon us. The longest night of the year will now give way to increasing daylight hours. From this turning point, we will eventually herald the spring arrival of our Chimney Swifts. 

There is much to look forward to. We look forward to having you join us in 2022 for an action packed season of monitoring, outreach, habitat restoration, and research. 

As you celebrate the festive season in your traditional way, all of us at MCSI wish you the best of health, happiness, and fellowship. Remember, “the only constant in life is change” (Heraclitus, Greek Philosopher)…so we will navigate the changes and challenges ahead, one brightening day at a time.

All the best from the MCSI team,

Christian Artuso (Co-Chair), Ron Bazin, Laura Burns, Neil Butchard, Lewis Cocks, Jack Dubois, Ken DeSmet, Nicole Firlotte, Frank Machovec (Webmaster), Tim Poole (Co-Chair), Amanda Shave (Co-ordinator), Barb Stewart, Rob Stewart, Joanne Tuckwell, Ashleigh Westphal.
