Dear Cayuga Birders If you want to know more about our bird habitat improvement project in Lighthouse Point Woods (also known as Jetty Woods), please consider coming down on Sunday or Monday to engage with us.
Sunday 10am to noon. Park at the Newman Golf Course at the west end of Willow Avenue. Walk in the dirt access road along the inlet to Lighthouse Point Woods. We will be working with Trees Up Tompkins and lots of Cornell students. Monday 10am to noon. Park at the Golf Course and meet by the yellow gate of the access road. We will be working with Trees Up Tompkins again and also with students from the New Roots Charter School. I especially need some additional seasoned helpers with this one who can help guide activities. What kind of help can you provide? Here is what we need: Someone to take photographs Someone to take notes about our activities and write down the kinds of questions people ask Someone to help explain about birds, bird ID, and bird migration Someone to help direct students using the privet-pullers Someone to guide a small group around the area to examine our fences and note their condition and repair needs (no fence repair, just note taking) Someone to write down ideas from the students about how they can become engaged in preparing additional signage and information to be displayed via our QR codes. Bring your camera, a small notebook or pad of paper and something to write with, gloves and boots (it will be wet with all the rain we've head), your binoculars, your enthusiasm, and a smile. *Please let me know if you can help either Sunday or Monday by emailing me at jodye...@gmail.com <jodye...@gmail.com>* Thanks!
