Annual Nesting Bird Census
June 7 @ 7:30 am - 12:00 pm
Grab binoculars and join us in counting birds at Mariton. Since 1981, staff and volunteers have conducted an annual nesting bird census to count the number of species and individual birds breeding at this 200-acre preserve.
The census results serve as an important tool to help assess habitat management strategies. Healthy habitats sustain various nesting species, including flycatchers, tanagers, thrushes, and warblers. Mariton’s woodlands are particularly important to birds like the Wood Thrush, which requires large forests for nesting.
