Interested in a seasonal job working for the birds? BSBO and partners such as Ohio State University, U.S. Geological Survey, U. of Toledo, Bowling Green State University, and U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service have initiated a major study to quantify migration along Lake Erie not only in volume but how these feathered creatures use the habitat we call the Air Column in one of this country's greatest stopover sites. USGS is looking to hire technicians to assist in operation of several radar units they will be deploying in the marsh region and Ohio State University is advertising a tech position for conducting point counts. See the attached job announcement for the USGS positions and check the link below for the OSU announcement. Be a part of giving back to the birds.
