Lynne Fitzgerald, Field Trip Coordinator

A transplanted "Louisianian" from Shreveport, I came to the Dauphin Island birding in the early 2000’s as a novice and fell in love with the people and birds of SA.  Served as an educator for 35 years with my last 17 as a high school principal, which explains why I liked the birds.  Celeste Hinds mentored us through the Eastern Shore Birders and when they needed someone to coordinate the field trips, I was “elected” or more appropriately outnumbered.  It has been fun because all our birders are such wonderful and enthusiastic participants and our birds more likely cooperate than not.
