Chagrin River Bird Quest

Sept. 9-10

Bird enthusiasts are challenged to a 24-hour birding marathon. Geauga Park District in partnership with Greater Cleveland Audubon Society and Blackbrook Audubon is encouraging area residents to assemble a team and join in on the Chagrin River Bird Quest Birding Challenge.

Begin by registering with the Audubon Society of Greater Cleveland at www.clevelandaudubon.org under Bird Quest, then coming to The West Woods Nature Center on Friday from 4-6 p.m. During team check-in and final registration, pick up maps, checklists and T-shirts – all free materials – and talk strategy with teammates and naturalists.

Participants will then spend the next 24 hours birding. Visit the Audubon’s website for challenge rules.

Then, on Saturday from 4-7:30 p.m., return to nature center to turn in checklists for judging and enjoy refreshments, awards and door prizes.

Call 440-226-4636 with questions.
