Marsh Monitoring Program Volunteers Needed in Sudbury and North Bay Bird Studies Canada is seeking volunteers to be trained as amphibian and/or bird monitors for wetland areas in Sudbury, North Bay, and surrounding regions. No prior experience is necessary.
Interested nature lovers can attend Marsh Monitoring Program <_http://www.bsc-eoc.org/volunteer/glmmp/index.jsp_> (MMP) Information and Orientation Sessions on: * Saturday, November 3, 8:30-3:00 at Science North (INCO Cavern), or * Sunday November 4, 9:00-3:00 p.m. at the North Bay-Mattawa Conservation Authority Office. Returning participants are also welcome to attend, to meet program staff and refresh their survey technique. These presentations will provide information about the MMP, its survey protocols, and how the collected data are used. Volunteers will also be formally registered and assigned a monitoring route. Participants are invited to attend a marsh walk following the training session (12:45, bring your own bagged lunch). Financial support for this session has been provided by the TD Friends of the Environment Foundation. This event is free but participants must pre-register prior to Thursday, October 25 by contacting Kathy Jones at [EMAIL PROTECTED], or 1-888-448-2473 ext. 212.
