The public is invited to attend the next event in the Lower Nehalem Watershed Council’s speaker series on Thursday, Nov. 10. Council board member and wildlife biologist Ted Chu will be the featured presenter. Chu had the brief opportu- nity to volunteer on the Mid- way Atoll albatross nesting grounds, where black-footed and Laysan albatrosses that forage off the Oregon Coast return each year to create COURTESY OF MIDWAY ATOLL NATIONAL WILDLIFE REFUGE Wisdom, a wild female Laysan albatross, tends her chick in February 2016. Wisdom is the oldest known bird in the wild at 65 years old (possibly even older). large breeding colonies. Albatrosses are large seabirds whose wingspans can reach up to 10 or 12 feet. Most albatrosses range in the Southern Hemisphere in Antarctica, Australia, South America and South Africa. Four albatrosses range in the North Pacific, from Hawaii to Japan, California and Alaska. A breeding season, with one egg, can last over a year from laying to fledging. Wisdom, a female Laysan albatross, is the oldest wild bird in the world; she was first banded in 1956 and is thought to be about 65 years old. Chu’s slide presentation will highlight these iconic birds. As a special door prize, Chu will be giving away a signed copy of Carl Safina’s book “Eye of the Albatross.” The presentation will be held at the Pine Grove Com- munity House, located at 225 Laneda Ave. in Manzanita. Doors open at 6:30 p.m. for refreshments. The presen- tation will start at 7:20 p.m. following an update from Lower Nehalem Watershed Council at 7 p.m. This event is free and open to the public.

Edna Vazquez brings Latin roots to Astoria Hear her perform Sunday at Fort George Brewery ASTORIA — Fresh off of wooing a sold-out crowd as a solo act at the Liberty Theater in support of Blind Pilot, Edna Vazquez will return to Astoria with her band for a night of Latin roots music at the Fort George Brewery. She will perform at 8 p.m. Sunday, Nov. 6 at the upstairs pub, located at 1483 Duane St. There is no cover for the show, and all ages are welcome. After Fort George, Vazquez will continue on to the World Cafe Live in Philadelphia to be broadcast on NPR. Vazquez is a Port- land-based Latin American singer-songwriter who performs original composi- tions that pay homage to her international influences with a passion that comes through in every note of her music. She lifts the audience’s spirits during her cathartic live performances with a vocal range that allows her to transition seamlessly between folk, rock, pop and Mariachi, all while explor- ing jazz stylings. Vazquez’s songs are deep- ly rooted in universal human emotion, and she has traveled far and wide spreading her message of light, love and SUBMITTED PHOTO Edna Vazquez will perform Sunday, Nov. 6 at the Fort George Brewery in Astoria. cultural healing. Born in the Mexican state of Colima but raised in Jalis- co, Vazquez spent half of her life immersed in the culture and music of Mexico and Latin America, moving to the United States as a teen- ager. Her passion for music and performance was born from these bicultural roots and has led her on a path of self-discovery through song that has brought her success at each turn in the road. Whether sharing the stage with her musical influences or winning the first prize on Sabado Gigante with her rendition of “Cucurru- cucú Paloma,” Vazquez’s spirit and powerful vocal performance have been the cornerstone of her career.
