G'day All

Several years ago the late Tom Webster made a pretty cool video on our early Desert Springs Action Committee work in Ash Meadows. We have finally converted a copy of this to DVD and are selling them for $10 via NANFA, shipping included. Make check or money order payable to NANFA and send to: NANFA, P.O. Box 1596, Milton, WA 98354. Here is a flier from the last AC which I've pasted below.

Meet the pupfishes of Ash Meadows in this fascinating DVD by Tom Webster

Crystal-clear pools shine like emeralds on a desolate desert valley floor. While pupfishes “play” in these oases, conservationists battle to save their habitat from water-thirsty developers, and biologists and aquarists team up to remove thousands of exotic fishes, crayfishes and frogs.

This 30-minute DVD introduces you to the three kinds of pupfishes that live in the desert springs of Ash Meadows, Nevada, and the efforts of native fish enthusiasts to save them. Also included is little-seen footage of divers entering Devils Hole to count the Devils Hole Pupfish (which holds the distinction of living in the most restricted habitat of any vertebrate in the world).

The 23,000 acres of the Ash Meadows National Wildlife Refuge will be the site of the 2010 NANFA Convention, October 14-19. If you can’t make it, this DVD will show you some of what you missed. If you do make it, this DVD will be a cherished souvenir.

To order: Pricing is $10 per disk, shipping included. Make check or money order payable to NANFA and send to: NANFA, P.O. Box 1596, Milton, WA 98354. Thanks!
