Our next bird count is August 19th, beginning at 8 am at the Bird Center. The September count will be Sept. 18th. Join us if you can, as a lot of species are on the move and it could be an interesting day both months. As part of the Pledge to Fledge (www.pledgetofledge ) kickoff weekend, we will offer a Non-Birder walk here at Magee Marsh on Saturday August 25th. We will begin at 10 am, to allow our non-birding friends to sleep in, and we will have binoculars available for loan. So please come and bring at least one non-birding friend, relative, neighbor, co-worker, young person, or an other non-birding person to this walk. Together we can inspire others to notice and enjoy birds, and to support bird conservation. Happy Birding! Mary L. Warren Wildlife Communications Specialist Magee Marsh Wildlife Area 13229 W.
