Bird Banding at Willistown Rushton Preserve
As fall migration winds down, you will have the opportunity to observe bird banding and to learn all about the process.
Teaching children and adults the value of conservation, the importance of preserving open space, and the value and use of scientific research skills are the passions that we strive to share with all of the participants who visit our bird banding station.
All ages welcome!
