MOHONK LAKE/ASHOKAN RESERVOIR (NYML) CHRISTMAS BIRD COUNT
December 20

Centered in SUNY Ulster, the longest running CBC in Ulster County is as big a part of JBNHS history as anything the society is connected with. Maybe it’s your time to get involved, in the field or even as a feeder watcher. Contact NYML compiler Steve Chorvas (845-246-5900 or schorvas@gmail.com ) for
possible assignment. A post count compilation will be held at the Hasbrouck Park stone building in Kingston.
