YOU are invited to celebrate International Migratory Bird Day and the North American Migration Count at Sherburne National Wildlife Refuge on Saturday, May 14.
I'll have Refuge Headquarters open tomorrow from 6:00 a.m. to 12:00 p.m. Stop by for a cup of shade-grown, triple certified, Caffe Ibis coffee, hot chocolate or a breakfast snack. Pick up a bird check list, get a bird sightings update - and be on your way to enjoy the avian life that is PLENTIFUL at Sherburne right now! We'll have a bird sightings (count) and information board up all day, so please stop in to share your sightings! You are welcome to join a FREE guided bird tour beginning at 7:00 a.m. for avid birders, which will include walking trails and driving the auto tour; or a family/beginning birder guided tour starting at 8:30 a.m. which will be a car caravan tour around the Prairie's Edge Wildlife Drive. Meet your guides at Refuge Headquarters for both trips. Pick up a FREE International Migratory Bird Day poster or Jr. Birder Activity Book (while supplies last). To sign up for a tour (appreciated, but not required), or get questions answered, send an email or call: Betsy Beneke Visitor Services Manager 763.389.3323 ext. 13 [email protected] ---- Join or Leave mou-net: http://lists.umn.edu/cgi-bin/wa?SUBED1=mou-net Archives: http://lists.umn.edu/archives/mou-net.html
