Come join the Nestwatch workshop and learn how to monitor birds nesting in your neighborhood.  You can become part of an exciting national pilot program to become "citizen scientists," learning how to collect valuable data on nesting birds in your neighborhood that will be studied by some of the world's most renowned bird scientists.  You will learn more about the birds local to your neighborhood, where they nest, how you can make your backyard more bird-friendly, and how to submit your nest observations to a national online database.
