I took this photo last week of a twining vine in a weed tree. An Internet search tells me it's American bittersweet.
Kellogg Environmental Center in Derby to hold Project FeederWatch training
DERBY - Do you know the difference between a house sparrow and field sparrow?
Are you a beginner or seasoned birdwatcher? If so, become a FeederWatcher!
Attend a Project FeederWatch volunteer training from 9:30-10:30 a.m. Oct. 23 at the Kellogg Environmental Center, 500 Hawthorne Ave.
After the training, volunteers will monitor birds and maintain the bird feeding stations at the Kellogg Environmental Center from November 2021 to April 2022 on Fridays and Saturdays.
Project FeederWatch is a community science project that studies the distribution and populations of winter bird species across the country.
Volunteers monitor and count the number of birds at the Center’s bird feeders during pre-selected days between November and April.
The data is carefully recorded and sent to the Cornell Lab of Ornithology for compilation, analysis and publication.
Project FeederWatch is well suited for students, teachers, families, retirees, and anyone who has an interest in birds and enjoys watching wildlife.
All ages are welcome, but children under the age of 12 must be accompanied by adults. The training is free and open to the public. Registration is required.
For more information and to register, contact the Kellogg Environmental Center, 203-734-2513 or donna.kingston@ct.gov.
