Interested in surveying for Marsh Birds or Amphibians this spring? Each spring, hundreds of active Citizen Scientists in the Great Lakes watershed dedicate eight or more hours to survey marsh birds and/or amphibians in coastal and inland marshes. Great Lakes Marsh Monitoring Program volunteers are awarded with a great opportunity to spend time in these unique habitats - enjoying nature, improving their skills, and supporting wetland conservation. At the same time the important data they collect contributes to our understanding of these species, their habitat needs and the health of the Great Lakes. Interested in participating? Learn more about the Great Lakes Marsh Monitoring Program <http://www.birdscanada.org/volunteer/glmmp> online, and view a map of available and assigned routes in New York <http://goo.gl/qB53DA> or throughout the survey region <http://goo.gl/7clhZs>. To register, contact Kathy Jones at volunt...@birdscanada.org<mailto:volunt...@birdscanada.org<mailto:volunt...@birdscanada.org%3cmailto:volunt...@birdscanada.org>> and let her know your location and preferred route choice. The Great Lakes Marsh Monitoring Program is delivered by Bird Studies Canada with support from the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, Environment Canada, and T.D. Friends of the Environment Foundation.
