Date and Time: Saturday, March 7th, 10am – 11am

Speaker: James Junda
Animals navigate changes in the day and year with an internal Circadian Clock. This clock tells them when to sleep, breed, and migrate. We will learn about how this clock functions, how it needs external input to stay accurate, and how it works from day to day and season to season.
James Junda 's journey studying birds started during summers with his grandparents at Schoolhouse Pond in Chatham and has taken him to five continents He has been operating songbird banding stations at Mass Audubon's Wellfleet Bay Sanctuary and around the lighthouse on Monomoy National Wildlife Refuge since 2011.
