Geoffrey “Quick Draw” Clarke

In January, we were birding in Patterson Park and Geoff got a straight overhead shot of a Rough-legged Hawk in flight. Amazing. We caught a bit of a break when it veered into the wind and slowed to a stop briefly. Likewise,on September 3, 2019 at Lake St. Clair Metro Park, I got a big break when a Bonaparte’s Gull was stuck in the wind right by me and low at that. Got a long look.
We met chasing birds including the Kirtlands Warbler at the Detroit Athletic Club in Downtown Detroit. Then he got me set up on Discord, so I follow his posts. Geoff is Moderator for Wayne County chat and recently established Ghesquire Park as an Ebird Hotspot. Ford House is also a Hotspot. He has visited all 190 Hotspots in Wayne County already this year.
So this is a new eBird feature for Hotspots in close proximity. One eBird checklist of 27 species over 7 locations.

Be the 1st on your block!

Past President Bill brought our Logo to life in 2001 and now we have our GPA Logo on a 13 x 13 tote bag 25 years later in our 60th anniversary year.
Anna provided me with a PDF file which I provided to Print Xpress.

I always contend that GPA membership is the best buy in Birding and now we have the best buy in toting, $10.00!

You can call in or email in or stop in to order your bag. It’s not too early to think about Stocking Stuffer gifts for the Holidays.
We gave the first GPA tote to our September Speaker Peter Kaestner.

No, you do not have to be a member of Grosse Pointe Audubon to purchase a GPA Tote.
