USFS & Meeker School District Celebrate WMBD 2022

The United States Forest Service will partner with the Meeker School District to celebrate World Migratory Bird Day for the 20th consecutive year. Mary Cunningham, Biological Scientist on the Blanco Ranger District of the White River National Forest, will present the 2022 PPT presentation to students in grades 4-8 at Meeker Elementary and Barone Middle Schools to explore the theme 'Dim the Lights for Birds at Night'. All students will go on bird walks from 8-10 AM each morning beginning on April 26 through May 12. We typically identify 25-40 bird species by sight and sound in the town of Meeker, Circle Park and on the White River which flows through town.
