  • Northern Saw-Whet Owl Confirmed As a Regular Visitor to Central Missouri!
    Message from the Fundraising Chair Dear Members and Friends of MRBO, It has been just a few short months since the launch of the Missouri River Bird Observatory member- ship drive and our mission to further awareness of the need for conservation. This has been a most rewarding Dana Ripper experience for many of us thus far. As we opened the Director world of MRBO to others through fundraising pro- grams, we ourselves have discovered the true meaning of the “fun” in fundraising. Ethan Duke On the project end of things, both students and Assistant Director teachers at elementary schools throughout the area were overjoyed with the programs that Dana and Ethan pre- Board of Directors sented this fall. There were many small groups but also large ones like the 150 second-graders in Centralia and the 180 elementary students from Fort Zumwalt School District who visited the MRBO Jim Niemann station in the Busch Conservation Area. As you browse through the photos in this issue Chairman you, too can share the wonderment of children discovering nature through the beauty of a very small creature. Seth Gallagher One of the projects that I found most interesting, and which you can read more Vice-Chair about in a following article, is the Northern Saw-whet Owl project. These tiny owls are adorable and so “cuddly”. To hold one and just rub its little neck while it looks at you with those big eyes … this is truly another of nature’s little miracles. Huge thanks goes Lynn Schaffer to the Indian Foothills Park staff for letting MRBO use their office for the nightly owl Secretary banding as well as for the two months of song bird fall migration monitoring.

This walled cemetery is on top of a high ridge of that peculiar formation called “The Pinnacles” overlooking the Missouri River bottom. Immediately in front of the stile entrance over the five foot con­ crete wall is an ancient Indian mound.‘ Abel, or Abe, as he was to be called, was born in Hardy County, Vir­ ginia, in 1834, the son of Abraham and Elizabeth Parsons Vanmeter. Abraham was born in Hardy County in 1785; his father, Joseph, served through the Revolution with Washington. Abraham served in the War of 1812. He came with his family and slaves to Saline County in 1834 where he accumulated a large tract of land near Miami and became the most extensive cattle dealer in northwestern Missouri.
