Project
FeederWatch
Calling all birders! Join Darke County Park District, and participate
in Project FeederWatch, every Tuesday and Wednesday from 9:30-11:30am.
This is a unique ‘Citizen Science’ program organized by Cornell
University which studies winter bird populations. Observations from
here in Darke County may be used in scientific journals and shared with
ornithologists and bird lovers nationwide. No matter your birding
level, beginner or expert, we need YOUR help! Bird watchers will gather
inside the Nature Center at Shawnee Prairie Preserve (4267 St. Rt. 502
West) and count the birds that visit the bird-feeding station. Drop in
anytime on Tuesday or Wednesday from 9:30am-11:30am to help with the
project. There will be warm drinks and goodies available for those
enjoying nature from the comfort of an armchair on a cold winter’s day.
For more information on Project FeederWatch or if you have any
questions about any of the many other programs offered by the Darke
County Park District, call the Nature Center at (937) 548-0165.
