    Are you looking for a new birding spot? Do you have a question about a bird you might have seen on your last visit to the beach? Join us for this month’s KELT Untapped! The Kennebec Estuary Land Trust (KELT) will be holding a happy hour event at Bath Brewing Company on Monday, Aug. 20 from 5:30 to 6:30 p.m. This informal chat will be a chance for folks to discuss topics they've been curious about with local experts, learn more, and have a beverage (or two).

    At the fourth KELT Untapped, we will be joined by local birder and photographer Mike Fahay. Mike is a semi-retired ichthyologist who studied the ecology of fish for more than 40 years in New Jersey. Since re-locating to Maine in 2006, Mike spends much of his time photographing birds, especially shorebirds and is an active user of eBird for recording his observations. Mike will talk a bit about birding in Maine over the last decade and there will plenty of time to ask questions and learn about some of the best places to bird in the area.

    There is limited space for this event. Preregistration is not required, but greatly appreciated. Please let us know you’ll be joining us by calling 207-442-8400 or at www.kennebecestuary.org/upcoming-events/kelt-untapped-august.
