SUMMARY:Litchfield Audubon Society Meeting
DESCRIPTION:Birding by Tree \nKen Elkins will talk about learning to identify some of the trees and shrubs of our area with an interesting connection to birding. Some birds and trees have unique relationships that you may not learn about in a field guide\, but these patterns will help you find some of our most sought-after birds if you’ve taken a moment to “read the leaves.” Ken is director of the Connecticut Audubon Society’s Coastal Center at Milford Point. He is a former president of the Connecticut Ornithological Association and was also education program manager at the Bent of the River Audubon Center in Southbury. He created a nationally recognized therapeutic program called “Bird Tales\,” which uses birds to engage people with dementia. (Ken will also lead a Birding by Tree walk on October 11) \nNote: The meetings will be in person and on Zoom. To participate on Zoom\, go to the Calendar section of our website\, lhasct.org\, to register. You will be sent the login link. \nThe meeting times are when refreshments are available. A short business meeting begins at 7 p.m.\, followed by the presentation.

SUMMARY:Twilight Talks & Presentations Series: Knit As To Turn Water
DESCRIPTION:* Pre-registration is advised \nKnit As To Turn Water: The History of New England’s Maritime Knitting. \nIt followed the fish\, the flight paths of immigrants\, the sea-lanes of war: the knitted clothing of New England reflects maritime cultures the world over. Rich with origin mythology and salty with sailors’ yarns\, garments like nippers\, half-handers\, and the infamous fisherman’s sweater each hold a romantic yet real place in our coastal history. Explore knitting a WWI submariner’s outfit with the Navy League! Imagine learning to knit with a pair of whalebone needles you carved yourself! Join Rebecca Bayreuther\nDonohue\, historian & knitter\, for an ode to wool and marvel once again at how the sea connects us all. A PowerPoint chronology comes to life with examples of breed-specific yarns and recreated garments. \nRebecca Bayreuther Donohue of Niantic has knit historical garments in between setting sails aboard New Bedford whalers\, splitting codfish aboard Grand Banks fishing schooners\, and lounging on O’Day Mariners. After more than 20 years at a major Connecticut maritime museum\, she co-founded the Dirty Blue Shirts living history collective\, whose participatory programs encompass everything from historic fashion & foodways to maritime culture & shipboard skills. Rebecca’s personal interest in historical\nhand-knitting stems from always being cold\, no matter what century she’s interpreting. With all the plastic in today’s oceans\, she thinks it’s time to revisit wool as the preeminent fiber of sustainability\,\nversatility\, and global community. \nDonations will be accepted at the Door – CLICK HERE TO REGISTER
