Thank you to all the active contributors to the CACHE and SPARKS programs. And a thanks and welcome aboard to new contributors. Those first few times can be challenging when confronted with the choices and an often unfamiliar taxonomy. It does get easier and faster! If I can be of any help, please don’t hesitate to email me. Below is a list of conservation areas and state parks for which trip reports in April would fill in blank periods in the CACHE and SPARKS bird occurrence data. Please consider a trip to one of these sites in April. Grab a friend or two to share the gas cost and have a fun day!
