Dear KBC members,
Thanks for your pledges and donations for the Big
Sit! The funds raised will be used to purchase
equipment for the bird banding project and to
support other bird-related research and educational
programs at the Nature Center at Shaker Lakes.
We
saw and/or heard 45 species which are listed
below, grouped according to the hour in which they
were first noted. We packed up and left a little
after 9:00 p.m. on Sunday, so once again we didn't
quite make the 24 hours, but it was great fun.
Thanks so much for your support!
