Presented to Nuttall by Bob Quinn
Before William Brewster founded the Nuttall Ornithological Club he discovered the birding treasures of Lake Umbagog in far northeastern New Hampshire. This special presentation to the Club will focus on Brewster the incomparable field ornithologist as well as Brewster the man.
Bob Quinn has been birding the Umbagog region for over 40 years. He was hired by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service to conduct the very first bird surveys at the new Umbagog National Wildlife Refuge. He created the NWR’s first bird checklist and remains the “go to guy” for bird related questions at the Refuge.
