SUMMARY:Michigan Birding Trails Workshop
DESCRIPTION:Communities across Michigan are recognizing birding as an economic driver. The US Fish and Wildlife Service indicates that wildlife-watching generates a billion dollars of economic activity in Michigan every year. Michigan’s grassroots-driven birding trails are a demonstration of the commitment of citizens\, businesses\, non-profit organizations\, and agencies to preserving natural resources and promoting bird appreciation and protection. Birding trails offer birders\, naturalists\, and general eco-tourists opportunities to explore diverse habitats across Michigan. Birding trails are typically driving routes linking prime birding locations. \nThe growth of birding trails combines Michigan residents’ and visitors’ passion for birding and love of the open road\, creating new opportunities for connecting birds and people. We want to nurture this growth by providing resources and support for new and existing birding trail organizers and teams. \nOn Friday\, February 24\, 2017\, Michigan Audubon and Sea Grant Michigan will host a birding trails workshop to support this grassroots effort throughout the state. Click below If you are interested in attending and learning more about establishing and maintaining a successful birding trail. For additional information or questions\, please contact Elliot Nelson at elliotne@msu.edu or 906-322-0353. This event is free and open to the public. \nFriday\, February 24\, 2017\n9:30 AM-3:00 PM\nLocation: Boardman River Nature Center\, Traverse City\, MI \nClick here to register.
