Hello all birders,
Just a follow-up message to my invitation for folks to join us on our
habitat improvement project at Lighthouse Point Woods this evening from
6:30m to 8pm.
Please expect muddy conditions. It is much, much drier than it was a
couple weeks ago, but it will still be muddy in some places.
Also, please bring a pair of work gloves if you have them.
Park of our task will involve identifying, counting a labeling native
plants inside one of our fenced holding areas. For that task in particular,
we could use a few extra clip boards, a pad of paper, and writing
instruments (pens or pencils). I have plastic flags we can use
to mark/label various species, but we could use a few sharpies to write on
the flags.Oh, and if you have some loppers, you might want to bring those.
Also, please feel free to bring your binoculars. It was fairly birdy this
morning.
Thanks
Jody
