[Maine-birds] High-elevation bird conservation- Mountain Birdwatch looking for volunteers

Dear Maine birders,

Do you enjoy hiking and adventure, and are you looking to support a bird conservation effort? Mountain Birdwatch is a long-term monitoring program for Bicknell's Thrush and other high-elevation forest birds. We're looking for beginner to experienced birdwatchers who are strong hikers to conduct surveys in some of Maine's more remote areas- central Franklin county, the northwestern corner of the state, and possibly Baxter State Park. Hike a scenic mountain trail, enjoy the sunrise, and count birds for conservation! To learn more about Mountain Birdwatch protocols, visit http://www.vtecostudies.org/MBW/prep.html, or to check out our list of available routes, see http://www.vtecostudies.org/MBW/availableroutes.html . Please contact me (jscarl "at" vtecostudies.org) if you'd like to learn more about how you can get involved.

Thank you very much!

All the best,
Judith Scarl
Mountain Birdwatch director
Conservation Biologist, Vermont Center for Ecostudies
