All chapter work is done by volunteers for whom we are very grateful. Due to the COVID-19 outbreak, our volunteer opportunities will be limited for some time. The following are positions that can be done without being exposed to others.
Bird monitoring: Our Avian Science coordinator and his crew have refurbished swallow nest boxes on the McLane School trail (along Evergreen Parkway). He needs folks interested in monitoring the progress of nesting birds through the spring and summer. Starts in April and involves walking the trail.
Also needed are monitors for the BHAS Purple Martin nest boxes at Boston Harbor. Spotting scopes are needed to view them from the marina deck from late April through August.
