For Volunteers, All Ages, under 18 with trained adult
Volunteers will check all Prothonotary Warbler nest boxes #1-8 and will report data to NestWatch.
Important:
1. Volunteers must first attend a Flag Ponds Nest Box Training opportunity in order to qualify to monitor nest boxes there.
2. Nest boxes cannot be checked within 2 days of another nest check. Before responding to an opportunity make sure that no one has responded to an opportunity 2 days before or 2 days afterwards.
3. Although the time slot is advertised starting at 9am, you may monitor nest boxes any time when the park is open during regular park hours. Keep in mind that weekends in the summer can be VERY busy, so please plan accordingly.
4. If another volunteer has signed up for the date you're interested in, please pick another date, even if it says there is another slot open that day. The max capacity of 2 allows multiple family members or 2 friends to monitor nest boxes together.
Location: Flag Ponds Nature Park (wear Knee boots or waterproof hikers)
