Calling all birders, What better way is there to celebrate Earth Day than to engage with others in fun bird conservation activities?
The Cayuga Bird Club conservation action committee is looking for volunteers to come help us engage with youth and other members of the public at two up-coming Earth Day events. When: Friday April 21 and Saturday April 22 from about 10am to noon (it's fine if you can only help with one day). Where: meet at the pro shop of the Ithaca Newman Golf Course on Willow Avenue, and walk in to Lighthouse Point Woods from there. What: help by volunteering to assist with birding activities (talking about bird, showing others birds, talking about bird ID, demonstrating use of Merlin or eBird, etc.) or by supervising teams of folks working on our habitat improvement project. How do I learn about the habitat improvement project so I can understand what it even means to supervise teams of youth and others? Come to an informational walk at the location mentioned above on Saturday morning April 15th starting at 10am. No hard labor involved, unless you really want to remove some privet. Literally anyone can be a supervisor. Please contact Jody Enck at jodye...@gmail.com if you want to volunteer or if you need more information. Thanks Jody Jody W.
