Darke County Parks
Project
FeederWatch at DCP
Calling all birders! Join Darke County Park District, and participate
in Project FeederWatch, every Tuesday from 9:30-11:30am and Wednesday
from 3-5pm. 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 to help with the project. There will be
warm drinks 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 questions about any of the many other
programs offered by the Darke County Park District, call the Nature
Center at (937) 548-0165.
