Mass Audubon ‘Focus on Feeders’
(Via gardenauthor)
If you're a fellow backyard birder from Massachusetts, here's an interesting, fairly quick way in which to participate in a backyard bird count. You have the option of participating online or through snail-mail. I chose online - it was enlightening to realize how many species frequent my feeding stations - an easy, and revealing, questionnaire.
To enter their website, click on Massachusetts Aububon Society. Scroll to the second item (or click on the following) 'Focus on Feeders' and click on that arrow, which takes you to the participation page (great photo of 3 robins). Click on #2 or 3, depending on your preference, to fill out the form. There is also a wildlife photo contest, running concurrently, as well as a drawing for several prizes (taken from among the ranks of survey entrants).
Have fun - it's the perfect antidote to a cold, rainy election day! (And, yes, I cast my ballot, on this "Super-duper Tuesday." Hope you found time to be involved in "the process "... your vote counts!)
