AUBURN – The Stanton Bird Club will feature the Galapagos Islands at 7 p.m. Monday, Jan. 3, at a meeting at the High Street Congregational Church, Pleasant Street.
Speaker Loring Danforth, professor of anthropology at Bates College, will present a slide show and talk about his trip to the Galapagos Islands in June. Danforth will share information on the general ecology of the islands and the natural history of the wildlife there, especially the bird life.
