University of Maine Cooperative Extension 4-H is offering a new statewide birding club for youth ages 9-18, with online monthly meetings to be scheduled December through April. The 4-H Bird Chats club is for youth interested in citizen science, learning more about birds and sharing observations with others. Participants will learn how to contribute data to Project FeederWatch, a winter survey of birds in locations across North America, and share learning experiences with peers. The club is free to join; registration is required.
