[Bristol-Birds] peregrine falcon monitoring - volunteers needed

Dear TN Birders –
 
Volunteers are needed to monitor peregrine falcon nests in western North 
Carolina (including the Roan Mountain area in western NC - eastern TN).  
Nesting season runs early March through June.  Observers confirm that falcons 
are back on territory (March), monitor the nesting cycle (March-May), and count 
the number of nestlings (May).  Requires a vehicle, ability to hike in mountain 
terrain (some sites), half to full day in the field, binoculars, spotting scope 
and tripod, and keen, objective observation skills.  Training materials will be 
provided.  Contact Chris Kelly, North Carolina Wildlife Resources Commission at 
(828) 230-1320, kellych@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx
