SUMMARY:Climate Watch: Grab Your Binoculars—Birds Need Your Help!
DESCRIPTION:Grab Your binoculars—Birds Need Your help! \nWhat’s even better than watching birds? Knowing you’ve done something meaningful to protect them. Join Climate Watch\, and you’ll be doing both! As the impacts of climate change continue to unfold\, nearly two- thirds of all North American bird species could struggle to adapt. When you participate in Audubon’s newest community science project\, you’ll give Audubon scientists vital data on how birds are faring now—which guides our most effective conservation work to help them adapt. \nJoin the summer survey team on Saturday\, June 8 from 8:30 am to11:30 am. Our official meeting location is the River Road Park in Carmel\, IN.  We will split up the specific survey locations depending on the number of participants. The more participants we have\, the more survey area we can monitor! \nGet ready to count the bluebirds\, nuthatches\, goldfinches\, towhees\, or Painted Buntings you see. And know that\nyou’re an important part of protecting birds and the places they need. \nRSVP or send any questions to Audrey Cooper\, ABAS Board Member and Conservation\nChair. For more information on Climate Watch\, contact Chandler Bryant\, ABAS Board Member and Climate Watch\nChapter Coordinator. \nAudrey Cooper – audreyacooper@gmail.com\nChandler Bryant – Chandlersbryant@gmail.com \nSource: National Audubon Society’s Climate Watch webpage \nCoordinator Resources for Climate Watch | Audubon
