[Maine-birds] Bird Monitoring Next Weekend at Scarborough Marsh

Join us on July 27 and August 24 from 9-12  for our fifth annual marsh-wide survey of birds at Scarborough Marsh  The survey will document the numbers of individuals and species present in the marsh.  Depending on the assignment, surveys could last between 1-3 hours and may be done on foot, by car or from a canoe (provided at the marsh or bring your own). Beginning birders welcome!  They will go out with experienced monitors.  

 The morning will start with a brief introduction to the marsh and the survey methods.  After that, monitors will disburse to their assigned sections, and actual surveys may last up to several hours (depending on location surveyed).  

 For more information and to register, contact call 883-5100 or e-mail smac@maineaudubon.org.

This volunteer monitoring project is made possible through a grant from the Prout's Neck Associaton.
