[Maine-birds] Bird Monitoring Scarborough Marsh

Help gather data on Maine's first Important Bird Area  

 

 Join us on  August 20, 2016 from 7-10 at Scarborough Marsh for a marsh-wide survey of birds to document the numbers of individuals and species.  Timed to catch the beginning of shorebird migration, each group of monitors will be assigned a portion of the marsh to survey.  Depending on the assignment, surveys 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).  

 

  Please help us by forwarding this to anyone think might by interested.  

 

 Thank You, Linda
