Great American Bird Count

Dripping Springs birding enthusiasts will want to participate in the Great American Bird Count this weekend.  Hays County Master Naturalists are providing guided counts at Charro Ranch Park, Founders Memorial Park and Dripping Springs Ranch Park on Saturday, February 16th. Due to limited space, you must register in advance at www.sites.google.com/site/dsgreatbackyardbirdcount or email dsgbbc@gmail.com to participate. Participants will meet at Veterans Memorial Park at assigned times for an introduction to the GBBC and instruction on how to conduct counts at other sites. After the presentation, participants will be sent to one of the parks to meet up with an experienced bird guide to learn field identification techniques and conduct a one-hour count.
