Contact Doug Vogus at 330-352-2355 (email vogeye@yahoo.com) or Ann Chasar at 330-467-3664 (email ascdwc43@yahoo.com) for more information. If you are new to birding you are welcome to join us and work on your birding skills.
Last year (2011) the census was held from June 10 through June 19. Birders had this 10 day period to observe and count the birds in their assigned territories. If you are interested in participating in the future, please contact either Doug Vogus or Ann Chasar using the information given below.
The long term benefit of this activity is a record of how the distribution of species and counts within species changes over the years. This data is of importance to biologists and environmentalists who wish to monitor the changes that occur on a regional or national level, not just a local level.
Any birder who wants more information please contact Doug at 330-352-2355 (e-mail vogeye@yahoo.com) or Ann at 330-467-3664 (email ascdwc43@yahoo.com)
