WORLD EVENTS 2021

​World Migratory Bird Day – May 8, 2021

The Migratory Bird Day is a world-wide campaign to track and monitor migratory bird conservation around the globe. GVAS has linked their annual Spring Bird Count with this event which is always held on the 2nd Saturday in May.

Mesa County count is divided into 12 areas, with a trip leader for each area, and providing varied habitat. Shannon Young is coordinating the count, and can be reached mtngirl1111@gmail.com. Harriet Stephens has stepped up to receive and compile the count data.

​We were not able to accept additional volunteers for this year’s event. But next year? We will welcome your participation!! More about World Migratory Bird Day can be found at https://www.migratorybirdday.org

BIRDING ADVENTURES 2021

---

These adventures are typically limited to 6 people (although Ron Lambeth is allowing up to 10). We do want you to register by contacting the field trip leader via email or phone. We will not carpool and we will socially distance. There is no charge for these field trips but donations to GVAS are always appreciated.
