Mobirders,
Below is the list of focus sites MBS is working with the Missouri Department of Conservation and DNR Missouri State Parks in an effort to collect bird occurrence data for at least one birding trip per week for each week of the year.
This is an effort within the CACHE/SPARKS program. All that is needed from birders to contribute to the database is to bird the site and enter an eBird checklist.
Earnings from the CACHE/SPARKS program are used to fund partnership projects in bird conservation, habitat work, education, and research. See https://mobirds.org/MBS/Conservation.aspx for a list of projects funded through this program.
Grand Gulf State Park, Oregon County, is new to our focus areas. It has been called "Missouri's Grand Canyon", and is definitely worth experiencing.
Current River SP, Shannon Co,: July week 1
Sam A Baker SP, Wayne Co. : July week 1
Friendly Prairie C A, Pettis Co.: July week 1
Washington SP, Washington Co.: July week 1
Pomme de Terre SP, Hickory Co.: July weeks 1,2
Dark Hollow NA, Sullivan Co.: July week 1 and 4
Grand Gulf SP, Oregon Co.: July weeks 1 and 4
