Audubon to hold annual meeting
The Coastal Georgia Audubon Soci
ety will hold its Annual Meeting and
Picnic at Ashantilly on Sunday, June
5, beginning at 4:00 p.m.
Ashantilly is on Highway 99 about
three miles north of Darien, next door
to St. Andrew's Cemetery. Bring a
covered dish to share. Drinks, plates,
utensils will be provided.
The speaker for the meeting will
be John Kricher, Professor of Biology
at Wheaton College in Norton, Mas
sachusetts. Dr. Kricher is a graduate
of Temple (B.A.) and Rutgers (Ph.D)
and teaches ecology, ornithology and
vertebrate evolution. He is the author
of over 100 papers and articles in
scientific magazines and newspapers.
His latest book, The Balance of Nature:
Ecology's Enduring Myth, was pub
lished by Princeton University Press
in 2009. He also authored Galapagos;
a Natural History in 2002 and three
ecology field guides. He is currently
writing a comprehensive book of tropi
cal ecology which will be out later this
year.
Dr. Kricher is a Fellow in the Ameri
can Ornithologists, has served as presi
dent of the Association of Field Orni
thologists and as President of the Wil
son Ornithologcial Society. His topic
for the meeting will be the trials and
tribulations of passerine migrants.
All migrants have complex life cycles
in that they must inhabit and adapt to
a diversity of habitats: nesting sites,
wintering sites and stopover sites. In
addition they must face the rigors
of travel, sometimes for thousands of
miles much of it over water. Passerines
are perching birds, and how they man
age all these challenges is an interest
ing subject to explore. Some long dis
tance passerine migrants are thriving
while others are in decline, and some
of the difficulties they face include that
fact that our world's environment is
being increasingly altered by humans.
The public is welcome. For infor
mation, call CGAS president, Marge
Inness, at 912-638-3986. □

Why You Need A Home Inspection
You need an inspection on any property you are buying or selling. Yes,
when selling a home, you need to know of any major defects upfront and those
that can be remedied prior to putting your home on the market. When buying,
regardless if it is old or new construction, you need to call a home inspector.
What repairs will need to be addressed now and what might need to be
addressed later down the road? This is what you will have answered during
an inspection. Many times a prospective buyer will request that the home
inspection take place prior to writing a contract to purchase.
With an inspection in hand at the time the offer is made, you may be able
to negotiate your findings into the deal. As an example, does the roof need to
be replaced?
A seller may give an allowance to pay for the repairs. If you don’t make the
request, you will never know.
This is just the beginning of our discussion on home inspections. The
home inspection varies on the type of property you’re interested in buying.
Also, having a trusted inspector means that most every problem that can be
identified, will be. The inspection is also a way to have peace of mind prior to
your purchase.
