Folks, We're on the lookout for more participants for the Glen Helen Christmas Bird Count. As near as I can tell, this will be the first CBC in Glen Helen (remarkable, really, when you consider that people have been keeping records on the birds of the Glen for decades). As such, I'm hoping for a sizeable group of observers so that we can start to build a solid baseline for the future. The date is set for Saturday, December 19th. We'll start at 8 am at Trailside Museum (505 Corry St. in Yellow Springs), and aim to hit all the trails and habitat types in the preserve. I expect that we'll finish up by 2 pm. I can promise hot chocolate and cold feet to all participants. What could be better? Please drop me a line if you're interested in being part of the count. Thanks! -Nick ------------------------- Nick Boutis, Director Glen Helen 405 Corry St. Yellow Springs, OH 45387 937-769-1908 www.glenhelen.org ______________________________________________________________________ Ohio-birds mailing list, a service of the Ohio Ornithological Society.
