Look for us at the Davidson Farmer's Market on Saturday, Feb. 12. We'll be there promoting The Great Backyard Bird Count which is always held Presidents' Day Weekend. This year that will be February 18-21. This is an opportunity for people of all ages to be a part of Citizen Science. You can count in your own yard or count in your neighborhood. Maybe you'd like to go on a hike and count. This link will tell you all you need to know about how to count, what to count and how to report your counts.
