** NYCAS need for Prospect breeding birding survey volunteers**

Dear Brooklyn Birding community member:

NYC Audubon Society (NYCAS) is in significant need of volunteers to help survey breeding birds in Prospect Park this spring. Please read NYCAS's director Glenn Phillips attached memo to me. You can either volunteer / reserve from the email addresses attached or simply show up at the Prospect Park Audubon Center the eve of May 12th..Please help if you can.It does not require much time or work to record 2009 breeding Prospect birds. Thanks

Peter -


This year NYC Audubon has two important projects in Brooklyn that need your help. The first, a breeding bird census in Prospect Park needs at least 30 volunteers to help. The second, a Project Safe Flight survey of buildings on Plaza Street needs just three more volunteers. If you are available to help one morning a week for an hour or two and can get up and out early in the morning before regular work hours, please contact us or attend our training session at the Prospect Park Audubon Center on Tuesday, May 12 at 6pm.


For more information contact our volunteer coordinator, Candace Khaokham at ckhaokham@nycaudubon.org or 212-691-7483


As a Brooklyn resident myself, I'm committed to making NYC Audubon active and effective in the city's best borough!
