Bird Banding

Saturday, May 14 7am-1pm, Lowe-Volk Park, 2401 State Route 598

In conjunction with the Pancakes in the Park Breakfast, we’ll be banding birds on the front porch of the Nature Center. Join Bob Placier and Crawford Park District staff for a morning of science! We’ll be monitoring mist nets to see which birds inhabit or pass-through Lowe-Volk Park. Banding is used to track trends in bird populations, among other research applications. All ages welcome and grab some pancakes in support of your Park District! Lowe-Volk Park is located 3 miles north of US Route 30.
