Resident bat biologist Eran Amichai attended a bat capture and handling workshop in Kentucky last week where he snapped this photo of a female Indiana Bat being fitted with an arm band. These bands help us understand important aspects of their biology such as longevity, site fidelity, and migration behavior. This information can help in the preservation of this endangered species. #Normandeau #batexperts #IndianaBat #batcaptureandhandling #batbiologist #environmentalconsultants

Happy September and welcome to the unofficial start of fall! This month’s calendar photo features a tense stand-off between a white-tailed deer and Eastern coyote spotted in Plymouth, Massachusetts; a cicada with its fresh molt from Northern Florida; and a garter snake hanging out in Goffstown, New Hampshire. #Normandeau #photocontest #employeephotographers #whitetaileddeer #coyote #cicada #gartersnake

Normandeau is partnering with the Resource Conservation District of Tehama County planning the restoration of a historic side channel in California’s Sacramento River to benefit rearing of endangered winter run Chinook salmon juveniles. The historic channel exited within a large backwater habitat, which is being assessed via snorkeling and seining for risk of predation from large piscivorous species such as Sacramento pikeminnow, striped bass, and black bass. #Normandeau #chinooksalmon #sacramentoriver #Sacramentopikeminnow #stripedbass #blackbass #snorkeling #environmentalconsultants

This busy-looking pink beauty is a spider flower (Tarenaya hassleriana). Although non-native to New Hampshire and not yet documented in the area, it was spotted recently during a wetland delineation near the bank of the Ashuelot River. This species likely escaped from someone’s garden, a common method of introduction for non-native species and/or was carried downstream by high water flows. Not all non-native species become invasive, but care should be taken with all exotic vegetation as they can lead to extinction of native species through competition, alteration of habitats and food webs, and result in reduced biodiversity. #Normandeau #botany #spiderflower #AshuelotRiver #responsibleplanting #environmentalconsultants

The New York State Environmental Technical Working Group has released guidance for pre- and post-construction monitoring to detect changes in marine bird distributions and habitat use related to offshore wind energy. These guidelines were drafted by an expert committee that includes our very own Julia Robinson Willmott.

Here's an American pelecinid wasp our field team came across while conducting a wetland delineation in New Hampshire last week. Although they look menacing, they don't sting humans. Instead, they are parasitoids of June beetles. Parasitoids are insects that sting other insects and lay their eggs on, in, or near the incapacitated host. How rude! #Normandeau #entomology #wetlands #NewHampshire #environmentalconsultants

Our TIMR technology helps to mitigate bat mortality rates at windfarms. It does so by detecting the presence of bats in the area and factoring in weather conditions to then send a high-risk alert to the turbine SCADA to initiate turbine curtailment until the collision risk has decreased.

Where in the world is Senior Bat Biologist Eran Amichai?! Most of the time he’s working from our Alachua, Florida office, but several times a year he’s out and about expanding his already vast knowledge of bat ecology and conservation and strengthening connections with others in the field. At the end of this month, Eran will be attending the Bat Capture, Handling, & Telemetry Workshop in Kentucky. This event is hosted by Bat Conservation & Management, Inc.—a company providing bat-related ecological services, workshops, and events throughout the year. To learn more about this week-long workshop, visit: https://lnkd.in/esAcQVH9 And don’t forget to say hello to Dr. Amichai if you’re attending! #Normandeau #bats #batexperts #environmentalconsulting #professionaldevelopment

Normandeau is as invested in the continuing education of its workforce as it is in the science itself. We regularly encourage staff members to attend conferences, seminars, and further their education as they so choose. This summer, one of our lab taxonomists attended a marine macroalgae seminar at Eagle Hill Institute in Maine. At this seminar, she was able to deepen her understanding of marine algae collection, identification, and ecology.
