Lehigh Gap Nature Center Jan/Feb Schedule
Jan. 5th, 2007 10:05 amDan over at the Lehigh Gap Nature Center sent this out and I'm passing it on in case anyone in the area is interested:
January 14 -- 8:00 a.m. Winter Bird Walk. Leader, Jeff Frantz.
This is the first of a new series of bird walks to be held on the Second Saturday of each month. See wintering birds as well as other general nature observations. If we have some snow, we may be able to find otter tracks at the ponds. This event will be cancelled if the weather is bad.
January 21 -- Winter Bird Survey -- 7:15 a.m. to noon. Teams leave the
Osprey House at 7:30.
Teams will survey the bird life in northern Lehigh and Southern Carbon counties. Form a team or show up and join one. There is some fun competition here while we gather data for an ongoing study. With this very warm winter weather, who knows what we might find.
Winter Raptor Survey -- surveys in Carbon and Lehigh by car. Contact us if you want to help. Can be done the last week of January or first week of February.
February 10 -- 8:00 a.m. Winter Bird Walk. Leader, Dan Kunkle.
Note that beginning in march, the starting time will be 7:00 a.m. for the bird walks.
Hope to see you at the refuge. No experience necessary -- we welcome inexperienced birders and can provide binoculars as well. These events are open to the public, so feel free to tell others about these events.
