Time: Wednesday, June 17, 2026, at 7:30 PM
Place: Alley Pond Environmental Center, 229-10 Northern Blvd, Douglaston, NY 11362
Peter Mundale is from Duluth, Minnesota and has been fascinated by the outdoors his whole life. His obsession for birds began at 8 years old reading Peterson Field Guides and only grew after traveling to Hawk Ridge for the first time in 2010! Over sixteen years later and still obsessed with birds, Peter is now a field technician in avian research and conservation! Field work Peter has done includes being a Counter, Naturalist, and Bander at Hawk Ridge Bird Observatory, a Point Counter in the Superior National Forest, tracking Boreal Chickadees with telemetry in the peatlands, working in the saltmarshes with Seaside & Saltmarsh Sparrows, Lead Spring Owl Bander, MAPS Bander, working on a Common Redpoll study, and leading his own research project with Horned Larks, Peter loves hawk watching! No matter where he is, the magic of migration is a spectacle that he loves to watch and share with others! When he's not birding (which is rare), Peter enjoys hiking, camping, snowshoeing, photography, mothing, and looking for dragonflies!
