ENF Sponsoring a Spring Big Bird Day
Apple River, IL) The Eagle Nature Foundation is sponsoring a Big Bird Day on May 12th, to be conducted by Naturalist, Terrence Ingram, at Apple Creek Arboretum, 8384 North Broadway, Apple River, IL. At that time Mr. Ingram will be trying to count all of the species of birds he can see from dawn to dusk. He will be attempting to document all of the species of birds that he can see on that day to compare with the species of birds he has seen on past Big Bird Days. This is his attempt to document the many birds which have been killed by agricultural sprays in the area, or for some reason have not returned to the area this year.
Mr. Ingram is inviting anyone and everyone to join him on that day to see what birds they can find. He could definitely use help in seeing the birds.
To help the Eagle Nature Foundation, (ENF), Mr. Ingram is asking people to pledge $$ to ENF for every species of bird that he is able to see on that date, or just send in a donation for his efforts. In the past few years he has seen less than 40 species of birds. ENF will use the raised funds to help in their efforts to preserve the bald eagle. Send your pledges and donations to: ENF, 300 East Hickory Street, Apple River, IL 61001.
