Join us as we monitor a variety of bird species at Missisquoi National
Wildlife Refuge.
This month's Bird Monitoring Walk will be on Saturday February 17, 2018 on
the Stephen Young Marsh Trail. Meet at 8:00 AM at the refuge parking lot
on Tabor Rd, about 1 mile south of the refuge Visitor Center. If you have
any questions, email me at [log in to unmask]
The monthly walks gather long-term data on the presence of birds, their
abundance, and changes in populations. The information we gather is
entered into the Vermont e-Bird database where data is stored by the
Cornell Lab of Ornithology. These walks are appropriate for all levels of
birders and provide a wonderful opportunity to learn about birds throughout
the seasons. Led by Ken Copenhaver and Julie Filiberti, Friends of
Missisquoi National Wildlife Refuge board members.
After 94 months of walks we have observed 151 species. Hope to see you
there!
