David Brinker - Raptor Migration & Monhegan

Dave works on biodiversity conservation for the Maryland Department of Natural Resources where he is a regional ecologist with the Natural Heritage Program.  His hands on involvement with raptors began in his undergraduate years at the University of Wisconsin Green Bay where in 1977 he obtained his B.S Ecosystems Analysis.  He now specializes in long-term monitoring and conservation efforts to benefit Maryland’s colonial nesting waterbirds, secretive marsh birds and raptors, as well as additional interests in freshwater mussels, tiger beetles and dragonflies. Dave’s passion for raptor research and bird banding began in 1975 when he started trapping migrant raptors at the Little Suamico Ornithological Station along the western shore of Green Bay.  Each autumn Dave operates a Northern Saw-whet Owl banding station at Assateague Island, that since establishment in 1991 has netted over 2,000 migrant owls, as well as a more recently established migrant owl banding station at Petit Manan Point in Maine.  Dave’s interest in Northern Saw-whet Owls led to founding of the continental collaborative banding effort Project Owlnet in 1994 (www.ProjectOwlnet.org) that now spans the continent. During spring his passion for raptors turns to studying Northern Goshawks in the central Appalachian Mountains of West Virginia, Maryland and Pennsylvania. Dave has used traditional radio telemetry, GSM and satellite telemetry to study the movements of Black Skimmers, Northern Goshawks, Northern Saw-whet and Snowy Owls. He co-founded and is a principal in Project SNOWstorm (ProjectSNOWstorm.org). Dave is a principal in the Northeast Motus Collaboration (www.northeastmotus.com) that is working to expand the inland footprint of the Motus array that tracks small migrating organisms using RF telemetry.  Dave co-leads a seminar on bird banding at the Eagle Hill Institute during late summer.  He has authored and co-authored a variety of peer-reviewed papers, including topics such as Red-tailed Hawk and Northern Saw-whet Owl migration, goshawk population change, and colonial nesting waterbird trends as well as contributing numerous species accounts in the Maryland, Pennsylvania and West Virginia breeding bird atlases.  He appears regularly on Maryland Public Television’s Outdoors Maryland and has also been interviewed and heard on National Geographic Today, on National Public Radio’s Morning Edition and on Living on Earth.

Kathy Cubert - Photography of Maine Birds and Landscapes

It was still dark as she slipped into the tight quarters of a wooden shed prior to sunrise. She was in the middle of a Prairie Chicken lek in Kansas that would soon be filled with males “booming” or displaying to females. On another day she watched thousands of Sandhill Cranes take flight for the cornfields of Medaryville, Indiana, their calls resonating within her.  On yet another adventure, Kathy experienced the magic of hiking to photograph monarch colonies overwintering in butterfly sanctuaries in Mexico. During the past three years her efforts have included supporting two Ohio conservation organizations, the Arc of Appalachia and Appalachia Ohio Alliance, through her imagery. In addition, Kathy’s future goals include teaching other photographer's ways to improve their wildlife photography both technically and artistically.  Toward that effort she has given multiple presentations to local camera clubs with tips on how to find a purpose in life through conservation-oriented photography as well as ways to improve wildlife photography skills.
She has been an Artist-In-Residence at the Arc of Appalachia and has been published by Audubon.org., Bird Watchers Digest, Columbus Monthly, Columbus Metro Parks and NANPA (the North American Nature Photography Association), to name a few.  In addition, she is an award-winning photographer. Kathy has a B.A. in journalism with a minor in photography from The Ohio State University. In total awe of the sights and sounds found in nature, she has spent the majority of her available time in the past five years photographing wildlife with an emphasis on bird photography. Her imagery can be seen at both www.kathryncubert.com.

Living and studying throughout various parts of New England, she has always been influenced by the outdoors and the way in which we coexist with it. With a BFA in Printmaking from Plymouth State University in New Hampshire and a passion for multidisciplinary making, she strives to learn and teach together with people of all ages, hoping to inspire others to become more connected to our earth. While managing and growing her small business, Teach Peace Prints, Katama is currently studying at Indiana University Bloomington, working towards an MFA in Printmaking. Investigating ways of employing natural materials that can be integrated into several printmaking and fiber processes has greatly contributed to her own awareness of how scientific and artistic practices overlap. These explorations have provided a deeper understanding of how to mindfully collaborate with the natural world in exciting and interesting ways. Working with mixed media through layering and the combination of different materials, she works with processes such as eco printing, natural dyeing, relief printing, digital media, screen printing, cyanotype, sewing, and photography. In 2013, Katama ventured south down the coast of Maine and visited Hog Island for the first time as a camper, attending the Coastal Maine Bird Studies for Teens session thanks to a scholarship from Downeast Audubon. It was then that she fell in love with the island and its special community, and is thrilled to return as an instructor. 

Sean Murtha - Arts & Birding: Sketching & Painting

Sean Murtha has lived all of his life near the Long Island Sound.  The marshes, beaches, and wide open skies attracted his artistic sensibilities and inspired his first plein-air paintings in his early teens.  He still makes a regular habit of drawing and painting in the field, using these as a basis for oil paintings completed in the studio. He earned a BFA in Painting from Pratt Institute in 1990, but feels his true education was gained at the American Museum of Natural History in New York City, where he worked from 1995 until 2007.Sean first came to Hog Island in 2016 as part of the Artist-in Residence program, and has longed to get back ever since.  He has also been an Artist-in Residence at the Leigh Yawkey Woodson Museum in Wisconsin, and at Great Gull Island, a tern-nesting colony off Long Island, NY.  In 2013 he was named “Bird Artist of the Year” by CT Audubon.  Sean lives with his wife, two sons (when they are home from college) and an indoor cat in Norwalk, CT, not too far from the Long Island Sound. His artwork can be seen at www.seanmurthaart.com

Jack Parlapiano - Junior Instructor 

From a young age, Jack had always had a general appreciation for birds but never became addicted to birding until he joined his school’s bird club in 6th grade. Eight years later, he can be found wandering the underbirded counties of his home state of New Mexico looking for rarities, finding new birding hotspots, and trying to learn everything there is about migration. Alongside his birding, Jack absorbs himself into the world of photography. He believes that when birding, the camera is just as important as the binoculars. It timelessly captures a moment that can be applied to learning, sharing, and recollection. A byproduct from this mindset has allowed Jack’s photography to be published in multiple journals, magazines, and websites, including AOS, US Army Corps of Engineers, and eBird. When not in the field, Jack attends the University of New Mexico where he pursues a degree in Biology with an emphasis in chemistry and environmental science and volunteers in the Museum of Southwestern Biology. He hopes to utilize his knowledge of southwestern species, habitats, and distributions to conserve important areas for all wildlife. Jack attended Camp Costa Rica 2019 and is extremely eager to join the crew up north. You can follow him on Instagram @nm_birder and see where he’s been birding lately at https://ebird.org/profile/Njk3MTA0.
