Bowdoin biology professor Nat Wheelwright ran into several former students at this fall’s annual meeting of the American Ornithologists’ Union in Estes Park, Colo. “Eleven of my former Kent Island students were at the meeting, most of them faculty or graduate students at various universities presenting papers on their research,” Wheelwright said. Their years of graduation span from 1999 to 2013.
