Hi all,

If you're a nature watcher who enjoys waterfowl, please come out and help us
with our 2nd Annual Migratory Waterfowl Count in the Port Joli area on
Saturday, 27 November at 10 am.
*
*Why count waterfowl?
We will be collecting valuable information on the abundance and distribution
of coastal waterfowl in the Port Joli area, which has been designated as an
Important Bird Area for migrating and wintering waterfowl.  The data will
also be shared with Environment Canada to help inform their management of
Migratory Bird Sanctuaries in the Port Joli, Sable River, and Port l'Hebert
areas.  Last year we counted over 2,000 Canada Goose and hundreds of
American Black Duck.
*
*Who's organizing the count?
Bird Studies Canada and Nature Conservancy Canada in partnership with the
Harrison Lewis Centre and Port Joli Basin Conservation Society.

What's involved?
Beginners and families are welcome!  Help us count birds, keep track of bird
numbers, or carry spotting scopes.  There will be a mix of driving and
walking to reach waterfowl observations sites.  Lunch will be provided by
Nature Conservancy Canada.  Bring binoculars or spotting scopes if you have
them, but we'll have some optics to share.

How do I sign up?
