.About this Event
Volunteers can participate in a variety of citizen science projects: conduct bioassessment of stream health through determining the presence of Class I/II/III macroinvertebrates at locations along streams on Fox Haven land, monitor the breeding success of bird species in Fox Haven’s 80 Bluebird nest boxes, track the presence of Monarch Butterfly eggs/larva in our milkweed patch. If you have any interest in these projects, please join us for a quick info session. Currently, we are most in need of volunteers to clean bird boxes, count eggs and hatchlings to determine the number of birds inhabiting Fox Haven.
No experience is necessary, however, an interest in scientific fieldwork, insect/bird identification skills, and attention to detail is highly favored!
Time Requirements:
Stream Health Monitor: checking 3 times from March-April.
Bluebird Nest Box Monitor: checking once a week from March-Aug.
Monarch Monitor: checking once a week from June-Sept.
If you are not able to attend this event, but are interested in any of these projects, please reach out to [email protected]
