Offered by Puget Sound Bird Observatory (PSBO)
Learn more about PSBO’s Birds Wintering in Urban Landscapes project and how you can contribute. This project uses color-coded leg bands to track chickadees and juncos in Shoreline and Lake Forest Park. We need observers to help us find and identify color-banded birds to learn more about how they use the urban landscape throughout the winter.
The training will cover:
· The goals of the project
· Background about bird-banding and color-banding
· Identification of the target species
· How and where to search for color-banded birds
· How to read color bands
· How to report your findings
This class will be offered twice. Each session will cover the same material.
