Whether you’re a brand new volunteer or get your hands dirty once a week, PLEASE register ahead of time if planning to attend ANY volunteer events.  Your registration ensures that we have adequate tools, equipment, and materials on-hand and that we can adequately plan and prepare for programs.

If participating in outdoors volunteer activities, please wear long pants and closed-toe footwear for your safety and protection.  In order to minimize waste, we ask that you bring a refillable water bottle.

Project FeederWatch                         
Wednesdays and Thursdays, November 11-April
Cost: $5 each person
Location: Main Office 
Pickering takes part in Cornell University Ornithology Lab’s winter backyard bird count, Project FeederWatch.  Please come for an hour on as many Wednesdays or Thursdays as you can to sit near our feeders and keep a tally of our downy and red-bellied woodpeckers, goldfinches, cardinals, titmice, nuthatches, and many more species.  Give Samantha a call before your first visit so that she can give you a quick orientation to get you started.
