Up with the Birds



For Calebs Eagle Project he counted Birds. Every year this needs to be done on Yongson Post and this year they were looking for someone to take it on. Caleb scoutmaster asked around and Caleb accepted the challenge. We are not really bird people but this was a great experience.


Volunteers had to be up with the birds and an amazing amount of them showed up at 5:30 a.m. to help look for birds. This was no small sacrifice for a Saturday and we were truly grateful. Everyone was given a tally sheet,binoculars, a spot on the map and some pictures of birds common in the area. It was actually kind of fun.
It was a lot of work. In a world where the bar seems to be set a little low for our boys, scouts can truly help make a difference.
