    Mark your calendars for the weekend of June 3-5! We are presenting the 9th Annual Great Adirondack Birding Celebration(GABC) at the Paul Smith’s College VIC in Paul Smiths, New York.

    We are thrilled to be featuring Scott Weidensaul as our  Saturday evening Joseph and Joan Cullman Lecture keynote speaker in the Paul Smith’s College VIC Theater @ 7:30pm

    Three days of birding events will take place at the Paul Smith’s College VIC as well as off-site field trips(Saturday and Sunday mornings) to Wilmington, Paul Smiths, Lake Placid, Saranac Lake, and Santa Clara, NY. Each field trip will focus on finding the many boreal bird species that inhabit this area during their summer breeding season.

    Friday will feature an all day Boreal Ecology Workshop at Massawepie Mire and The Wild Center. Friday evening is a dessert reception/GABC introduction, followed by our ever-popular owl walk on PSC VIC property.  Saturday afternoon activities include workshops, and presentations and time to visit our vendors Wild Birds Unlimited of Saratoga Springs

    • what what what !!! – Your are the best man

    • ?E Using a shampoo with coal tar can be very helpful when it comes to treating nits. | ?E Robi comb – this is considered the most effective nits comb, as it can kill the pests on contact. | ?E Olive oil nits treatment – mix half a cup of olive oil with at least 2 to 3 tablespoons of tea tree oil. |Massage the mixture onto the scalp and then cover the head with a shower cap. |Place an old towel around the neck to absorb the dripping oil. |Leave the oil mixture for about 30 minutes and then rinse the hair with an ordinary shampoo to get rid of the oil. |Use vinegar and hot water to rinse the hair alternately. | ?E Use warmed mayonnaise to smother your hair with, and then place a shower cap over your head. |Leave the mayonnaise on for at least 2 hours and then wash it with an ordinary shampoo to remove the mayonnaise from the hair. |Rinse your hair with vinegar and leave it there for 5 minutes before rinsing it again with an ordinary shampoo. | ?E Try to purchase a hair conditioning and gluey scalp treatment- the thicker the better. |Coat your hair very well and then put on a shower cap. |Leave it there overnight. |Upon waking up in the morning, wash it out. |Do not worry about leftover conditioners in the hair. |They can continue to stay there during the lice treatment process.
