Join us as we monitor a variety of bird species at Missisquoi National Wildlife Refuge.
This month's Bird Monitoring Walk will be on Saturday July 21, 2018 on the Black/Maquam Creek Trail. Meet at 8:00 AM at the refuge parking lot on Rte 78, about 2.5 miles west of Swanton village.. If you have any questions, email Julie at vtfiliberti@gmail.com
The monthly walks gather long-term data on the presence of birds, their abundance, and changes in populations. The information we gather will be entered into the Vermont e-Bird database where data is stored by the Cornell Lab of Ornithology and the National Audubon Society. These walks are appropriate for all levels of birders and provide a wonderful opportunity to learn about birds throughout the seasons. Led by Ken Copenhaver and Julie Filiberti, Friends of Missisquoi National Wildlife Refuge board members.
After 99 months of walks we have observed 154 species. (In June we added an Eastern Bluebird and a Yellow-billed Cuckoo to our list.) This will be out 100th walk! Hope to see you there!
