VOLUNTEERING IS GIVING
TO ALL WILDLIFE AND BIRDS

Everyone is responsible for making a difference in the life of wildlife.  Especially the immediate habitat closest to you!  As our planet becomes more and more populated, the natural habitats of many species are being wiped out and some are becoming endangered.

Audubon is about conserving as much of the natural habitat as humanly possible.  That means giving back to our environment.  You can help by teaching others.  Teach the children, help them NOT to make our same mistakes.  You can help by  organizing groups or individuals in simple to complex tasks that help give back to nature, or attend your local Membership / General monthly meetings, for up to date information .

No matter your interest, there is always something within this Audubon organization for you to participate in.  Any amount of help, large or small, is needed and appreciated!

Volunteer Needed!

Discovery Coast Audubon Society is looking for a someone volunteer to head a vital new Development Committee – someone who understands the importance of and creativity of fundraising.

This committee chair will serve a two-year term on the board of directors and act as liaison between our various fundraising activities and the board.

Currently, we have our merchandise of (1) posters; (2) Blue Heron original; (3) Guide to Birding book; (4) specialty bird coasters; (5) greeting cards and (6) some fundraising via letters to members; and proposed birding tours, festival, etc.

However, we need someone to coordinate these, plus look at new ways to expand our fundraising activities.  And, if anyone can help with writing grants, we’d love to talk to you, too.

Please e mail me at bird@discoverycoastaudubon.com or crusep@reachone.com, or call 642-1310.

Thank you.

Become a Citizen Scientist and 

Help House Finches!

Coast to coast, House Finches have become afflicted with a debilitating form of conjunctivitis. Two projects through Cornell's Laboratory of Ornithology, Audubon's partner in the Great Backyard Bird Count, offer budding Citizen Scientists the opportunity to take part in tracking and understanding this disease. Neither requires any experience and both are offered free of charge.

Citizen Scientists participating in the "House Finch Disease Survey" help monitor the spread and prevalence of the disease. Participants observe their feeders and submit data on the presence or absence of healthy and/or diseased birds in their particular location. Data can be submitted either on paper or online. The only equipment you need to participate is a feeder and the ability to observe your feeder visitors. Sign up at www.birds.cornell.edu/hofisignup/  and you'll receive a kit with instructions and information in the mail.

Citizen Scientists participating in the "House Finch Nest Survey" are helping to determine if differences in breeding biology are the cause of seasonal and geographic variation in disease prevalence. Participants locate and monitor House Finch nests around their homes and neighborhoods and keep detailed nest records (nest cards provided). Sign up at House Finch Disease Survey and we'll send you an information packet to teach you how to safely observe House Finch nests.

Questions welcomed at housefinch@cornell.edu or visit the Cornell Laboratory of Ornithology.
