Volunteers of the NNF Bird Survey
Since 1987, more than 400 volunteers have participated in the Nicolet National Forest Bird Survey. During recent years, 60-100 bird enthusiasts of all levels gather at the headquarters on Friday evening for the organizational meeting. Each participant is assigned to a group which includes at least one expert in bird song identification. Other members of the group contribute to the process by working as navigator, timekeeper, data recorder, or habitat evaluator. Every group includes individuals who are experienced with the methods of the Bird Survey.
Some of Wisconsin's best-known birders have taken part in the Bird Survey, and many of the long-term participants have gained a very high level of expertise in bird identification in northern Wisconsin. The list below includes all Bird Survey participants recorded over the first 20 years of the project. If you participated but your name does not appear on this list, please contact Robert Howe to be added. Group experts are identified with an asterisk (*).
