Birdathon 2010 Registration Form

Consider participating in the 2010 Oxbow Birdathon. To participate you do not have to be a birding expert, you do not have to spend all 24 hours in the field, and you do not have to go any farther than your kitchen window. You do need to count bird species. We would appreciate if all participants would take personal pledges in support of their efforts. All participants are invited to come on down to the pizza party at the end of the count period and tell us what you saw. You will find the team and individual registration information on page 4.

Those interested in participating or volunteering to be part of this birding celebration call Jay Stenger at 513-522-8147 or email Jay at jaystenger@cinci.rr.com or Jon Seymour at 513-851­9835 or email Jon at jlsjks@hotmail.com.
