How to use eBird for your travel plans to the Upper Coast - Featured Speaker: Joe Marsey
Using eBird is like having a personal assistant for your birding expeditions. I will use eBird to help you draw a map, recommend locations and what time to visit from what I have learned thru experience.
High Island: Michael Mathews
If you are planning to be with us at High Island April 24-25, we will touch on bird sites, motels and restaurants. I am expecting ideas and help from the audience. I want anyone that has never been there before; leave the meeting with a comfort level to travel the upper coast on their own schedule and pace.
