December 19th – Christmas Bird Count

The East Lansing Christmas Bird Count will take place on December 19th for returning participants only and with social distancing guidelines in place.

The Eaton Rapids Count will be cancelled this year.

Due to the COVID-19 outbreak, this year’s Christmas bird count will take place with full adherence to social distancing guidelines and with a Zoom compilation meeting following the count.

To ensure the safety of participants and compliance with local and state guidelines, participants in the count are asked to wear masks while in public, maintain social distancing and only carpool with members of your own household. This year we will encourage participants to make counts and report them to their area leaders. New count participants are encouraged to wait until next year to join us for this fun annual event.

Area leaders are encouraged to reach out to Barb Hosler at birdingbarb@yahoo.com for the electronic compilation forms and additional information. Participants should reach out to their area leaders for more information about the count in their area.

The Zoom meeting will take place at 7pm.

News

Fall Meeting Format Change

Meetings will be held online via Zoom this fall.
The first two months will be a bit of a trial, and if we have enough interest and people attending, we will continue after the first few months, but if they are poorly attended we will likely not hold any additional virtual meetings until we can meet in person.

CAAS Education Grants

Thanks to the support of our membership, Capital Area Audubon announces the availability of two separate $250 grants for nature education and programming related to the mission of CAAS. Following is a link to the grant application.
