New Haven Breeding Bird Atlas

Audubon Connecticut, with support from the Community Foundation for Greater New Haven, is looking for volunteers to participate in the third season of the New Haven Pilot Breeding Bird Atlas program. All levels of birders are welcome. Training is scheduled for May 21st at 10:00 am or 6:30 in the evening at the Bent of the River Audubon Center in Southbury, Connecticut (map). Training is not mandatory but is suggested. 



Volunteers will be asked to conduct surveys between May 25th and July 1st. We ask that volunteers visit a site two mornings during this period. The sites are located in the greater New Haven area from Milford to Madison and stretching inland as far as Cheshire.

Volunteers can survey a spot that they have been meaning to visit, a site close to home or even a site that is not usually open to the public. This is a great excuse for a walk in nature. Do something you enjoy and help birds too. To participate or for more information please contact Kim Anglace at KEA316@gmail.com.
