Not Just Flamingos: The Birds of Florida
Birds have always been a central part of Florida, from prehistoric times onward. Join Sylvia Gurinsky for a look at that history. Hear about archaeological finds of ancient birds, John James Audubon’s trips to Florida and how the campaign to save birds led to the eventual creation of Everglades National Park. The program will also explore the debate about the state bird and answer the question: Is the flamingo a native bird?

Our presenter, Sylvia Gurinsky is a lifelong South Floridian and graduate of Florida International University. She worked as an editorial writer and public affairs producer for WPLG-Channel 10, as an editor and reporter for the Sun-Sentinel's community news division and as an educator at History Miami Museum. She is currently an education guide at Flamingo Gardens; a women's leadership development instructor for the Girls Empowerment and Mentoring summer program of the Miami-Dade County Women's Park; and a presenter for the lifelong learning programs of Florida International University, Florida Atlantic University and Nova Southeastern University. For the Lynn & Louis Wolfson II Florida Moving Image Archives, she co-hosts the television series "Roadside Florida," about Florida destinations of years past. Her honors have included Florida Associated Press Awards for Editorial Writing and a Peter Jennings Project Fellowship for Journalists and the Constitution at the National Constitution Center in Philadelphia.
