Audubon Bird Presentation with Marla on July 10

Join us to learn about the efforts the Loess Hills Audubon Society is making to obtain the designation of Bird Friendly City for the City of Sioux City. Marla Kerr, President of the Loess Hills Audubon Society, will also share information about the current threats to birds and simple actions we can take to help protect them and enhance their habitat, citizen science aspects of data collection, bird watching tips, and birding app and book recommendations.

July’s Open Book Club: The Heaven & Earth Grocery Store by James McBride

In 1972, when workers in Pottstown, Pennsylvania, were digging the foundations for a new development, the last thing they expected to find was a skeleton at the bottom of a well. Who the skeleton was and how it got there were two of the long-held secrets kept by the residents of Chicken Hill, the dilapidated neighborhood where immigrant Jews and African Americans lived side by side and shared ambitions and sorrows. As these characters’ stories overlap and deepen, it becomes clear how much the people who live on the margins struggle and what they must do to survive. There are two in-person sessions each month and a virtual option for those who can't make the in-person meetings!
