Posted on behalf of Libby Mojica, Center for Conservation Biology: The Center for Conservation Biology (at William & Mary and VCU) is looking for volunteers to search for active Red-shouldered Hawk nests. Breeding pairs begin vocalizing and repairing nests in January/February and lay eggs in early March. CCB staff will band young at 2-5 weeks old using USFWS bands and field-readable red bands inscribed with unique alphanumeric codes. The study area for the project is Richmond to Williamsburg including both urban and rural areas. Interested folks should contact Libby Mojica at ekmojica@xxxxxx or 757-221-1680. -- Lewis Barnett -- Chair, Dept. of Math & CS, U. of Richmond, VA 23173 -- http://www.mathcs.richmond.edu/~lbarnett/ -- Work phone: (804) 289-8091 You are subscribed to VA-Richmond-General.
