[obol] Band-tailed Pigeon monitoring for ODFW

[Tom Nelson]

Volunteer Opportunities

The Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife needs a few enthusiastic birders to 

monitor Band-tailed Pigeons coming to springs.  There will be 2 days of 

monitoring.  The first in late july; the second in September.  The specific days are of 

your own choosing, in most cases.  The monitoring day begins at sunrise and ends 

at noon.  The monitoring is like a "Big Sit".  All of the observations are made from a 

fixed location.  Some of the sites require 2 monitors.  If you are interested contact:

            Nancy Taylor   at 541-757-4186  ext. 226  In Adair Village north of Corvallis
            
            Nancy has a site nr. Airlie
Or contact

            Chris Yee at 541-726-3515 ext. 27 in Springfield

            Sites are available from Chris in Cheshire, Fall Creek, and Weyco

Volunteers are needed for this and subsequent years.  Volunteers will be able to 

see hundreds of pigeons and, very often, see the raptors which come to those busy 

locations. Think abour it volunteers.  Tom Nelson  (a 4th year volunteer)
