Napa-Solano Audubon Presents: The Albatrosses of Kaua'i with Hob Osterlund

Hob Osterlund will kick off our Fall programs by speaking on the Albatross of Kaua’i: their Style and Story. Hob is a Safina Center Fellow and the founder of the Kauaʻi Albatross Network. She lives on Kauai and has helped to protect the Laysan Albatross and preserve their nesting habitat. She can often be found near the Kilauea Lighthouse hoping visitors to observe these exciting birds of the sea!
About the Speaker: Hob Osterlund is the author of “Holy Mōlī: Albatross and Other Ancestors” (Oregon State University Press, 2016 now in its fourth printing).
