Gresham Volunteer Bird Survey Training

City of Gresham is seeking volunteers to survey a natural area or urban site four times over an eight week period, approximately one hour per survey. Participants tare asked to survey around 4 times (every other week) in order to capture good population data for seasonal migrants as well as the over wintering species too.

This volunteer opportunity is open to anyone with an interest in birds and the ability to pay close attention to detail. Experienced birders can be paired with new birders to help with identification skills.

Join us for Volunteer Orientation Wednesday, April 9th   6-8pm OR Saturday, April 12th  10 am-12pm.  Orientation will cover:

• Survey Protocol
•  Site Selection/Assignment
• Basic Bird ID by sight and sound

You only need to attend one orientation.

To sign up or  for questions , contact Patrick Blanchard at  Patrick.Blanchard@greshamoregon.gov or call (503) 618-2740.
