For Volunteers, All Ages, under 18 with trained adult
Volunteers will check all Prothonotary Warbler nest boxes #1-8 & 6B and will report data to NestWatch.
Important:
1. Volunteers must first attend a Ward Farm 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 from 1 - 3 pm, you may monitor nest boxes any time that day.
4. If another volunteer has signed up for the date you're interested in, please pick another date, even if it says there are more slots open that day. The max capacity of 3 allows multiple family members or 3 friends to monitor nest boxes together.
5. If you would like to have members of your household accompany you during the nest box checks, please respond as a TEAM; however, please limit it to no more than 3 people at a time in order to minimize impact on nesting birds and the habitat.
