Help Count Feeder Birds

Like birds?

The Jacobsburg Environmental Education Center in Bushkill Township needs you.

The center is looking for volunteers to help with Project FeederWatch, a winter long survey of birds that visit feeders throughout North America. The data helps scientists track movements of winter bird populations and long-term trends in bird distribution and abundance. 

Help is needed during February and March, according to a release from the center.

A training day will be held fro 10 a.m. to noon on Feb. 1. 

Anyone interested in birds can participate.

To volunteer, contact Rick Wiltraut at rwiltraut@pa.gov or 610-746-2801, Ext. 103.
