Author and naturalist Joel Greenberg will be the featured speaker on the fate of three birds — passenger pigeons, Kirtland’s warblers and whooping cranes ­– at 7 p.m. Thursday, Nov. 29, at the Prospect Heights Public Library, 12 N. Elm St. The event is co-sponsored by the Prospect Heights Natural Resources Commission and the library. The look at the plight of three fascinating birds each experiencing a different fate at the hands of people has sometime heartbreaking outcomes that provide compelling lessons. The program is entitled “Hope is a Thing with Feathers: Americans and Three Birds.” Greenberg is a research associate at the Chicago Academy of Sciences Peggy Notebaert Nature Museum and the Field Museum with more than 25 years of experience on natural resource related issues in the Midwest. Admission is free, but guests are asked to register ahead of time at the library’s information desk.
