Press Release

Join STAR TREK alumni ARMIN SHIMERMAN (DS:9), ROBERT PICARDO (ST:VOYAGER), ETHAN “JOHNNIE" PHILLIPS (ST: VOYAGER) and JOHN BILLINGSLEY (ST: ENTERPRISE) for a fun-filled afternoon of bird-watching and picnicking, ON MAY 9TH, to celebrate LOS ANGELES AUDUBON’S 100TH BIRTHDAY!

Los Angeles Audubon promotes the protection of birds and other wildlife through recreation, education, conservation and restoration.  They are celebrating their Centennial with a "Bird-a-thon", a week-long ‘species trek’ across LA County.

Between May1-May 9, teams, accompanied by experienced birders, will select a Los Angeles County hot birding spot, and venture forth, in a competition to see which team can spot the most species! 

JOIN OUR TEAM! HELP US WIN!

Armin, Bob, Ethan “Johnnie” Phillips, and John are forming the “BALD(ING) EAGLES OF STAR TREK TEAM” to help support the conservation efforts of Los Angeles Audubon! The first 30 people to sign up get to join us for an afternoon of adventure! We’ll meet at a beautiful location, picnic on a delicious catered lunch, and then set forth to ‘bird". Your contribution will also entitle you to attend LA Audubon’s CENTENNIAL CELEBRATION, held (conveniently for us!), immediately after the conclusion of our afternoon peregrinations.  You’ll receive complete details re: venue(s), time, directions, etc., upon receipt of your check!

Here’s how to reserve your spot today! Call or email today- space is limited!

Call: 1.888.522.7428 Martha will assist you.
Email: books@laaudubon.org

Cost: $150/person

CAN’T JOIN THE BALD(ING) EAGLES STAR TREK TEAM? 

You can still attend the Centennial Celebration! For $50, we can accommodate 20 guests at the Celebration on May 9th (to be held at dusk, in a beautiful outdoor location).  The winning team (remember, there will have been a week of birdie rubbernecking) will be lauded, drinks and grub will be consumed, and LA Audubon’s remarkable contribution to the health and vitality of our community will be hallelujahed.

Contact LA Audubon to reserve your spot at the Centennial Celebration!

Call: 1.888.522.7428 Martha will assist you.
Email: books@laaudubon.org

Cost: $50/person

OUT OF TOWN? OUT OF STATE? OUT OF NATION? OUT OF GALAXY?

Support the Bald(ing) Eagles Star Trek Team anyway by pledging a $ amount per species spotted: $1 a bird, for instance.  (And if you’re fearful of the Bald(ing) Eagles’ bird-watching prowess  – Jeez, I didn’t know there were that many birds! – set a maximum contribution level for yourself! Your $10, $20, $25 pledge goes a long way to help our feathered friends!)

Call: 1.888.522.7428 Martha will take your pledge. Once the Bald(ing) Eagles are back from the field, Martha will let you know how many species they encountered and what your donation will be.
Email: books@laaudubon.org

Your participation will help support LA Audubon’s conservation efforts:  programs you will be helping to fund help rescue and preserve habitats for such beautiful birds as the endangered California Least Tern and the threatened Western Snowy Plover! Join the fun for a great cause!

“Join the ‘bald(ing) eagles’”

LOLOLOL

Bald(ing) Eagles–HA! So good to see they have a sense of humor. This is a great real world connection to Trek’s promotion of scientific and environmental endeavors..

Do they know anything about birding? Cuz I do! I just might sign up and help them out!!

@starfleetmom; I already joked with them that I might have to hike up the sponsorship per species – I mean, I lived in LA for most of my life – there were only crows and commons sparrows! ;) *giggle* j/k of course!

hah this is great-wish i lived in la–i also heard that picardo n phillips are funny as hell together-hope we get an article from someone who goes with them-also all 4 are very talented n some of the very nicest actors n they are always very kind n generous to fans-

What a riot! Wish I was in LA!

Some of my favorite Trek stars. They always did the best they could, even if they sometimes had some bad lines, and seem to be the best-natured of the bunch.

@starfleetmom; as you BFF and amatuer birder, can i be your birding caddie? I’ll pay?

Would it be out of place to suggest that, with his great singing voice, Robert Picardo do a rendition of Tom Lehrer’s classic “Poisoning Pigeons In The ParK”?

Just wonderin’…

#2 — That’s mean. When you’re an old coot you might lose your hair too!

LOL!!!!

@ 11

NEVER ! I will never lose my hair. I will always be head-full-of-hair ! The idea of losing my hair as i get older saddens me greatly.
