Today's topic: Touring the Bombay Hook National Wildlife Refuge in DE (migration birds)

  

Hop in your car, drive 100 miles (2-hours) from Columbia and experience a world of unimaginable wildlife.  

 

Where can this be?  

 

Bombay Hook National Wildlife Refuge near Dover, Delaware.  

 

At the recommendation of Jim Bouscaren, Karen Ohlrich and Dick Voelker visited the area twice in April 2021.  They were awed at the spectacle of the birds during the start of the migrating season and their photographs and stories will be shared on Good Morning Howard on Wednesday, June 23 at 9:00.  A sampling of the images are shown below [Glossy Ibis, Blue-winged Teal duck and Long-billed Dowitcher].

Come to join us for our new “Good Morning, Howard!”  zoom group.  We will be following the new schedule as listed below:

Monday & Wednesday at 9:00 AM


Our goal is to provide Howard County residents an opportunity to come together in a relaxed atmosphere, to meet with others, and to participate in the discussion/activities of Health and Wellness. Our content may include using technology to connect with family and friends, gardening, exercise, music, movies, jokes, popular websites, and healthy diet.

Participation is easy because driving is not required. This social program is for TVIH members and older adults from Howard County. This program was started in August 2020. 


Volunteers (TVIH members) will take turns to serve as the hosts of the GMH zoom meetings. The hosts will greet the participants, make introductions, and give the feedback/suggestions back to the membership committee.

Most people will join by using their computer, tablet or smartphone. To join, you need a zoom meeting link. The link will be emailed to you after you register. 

To Join Zoom Meeting by using a smartphone, dial 1-929-205-6099. You will be prompted to enter the meeting ID and the password.  If you are prompted to enter a personal ID, simply press the # sign.

The person using a phone can hear everyone and can talk.  He/she cannot be seen on other people’s screens.
