Ogeechee Audubon Field Trip: Savannah Christian Preparatory School

Rusty Blackbirds have become a species of major conservation concern, as their numbers have inexplicably plummeted over the past few decades. And yet, here in Savannah, we have been identifying a growing number of locations that seemingly harbor significant populations of these mysterious blackbirds. Join Stan Gray, who has been studying Rusties at this amazing wintering “megasite” for the past seven years. Welcomed by the school administration to bird this private school property on weekends, Ogeechee Audubon will explore the nature sanctuary affectionately known to the school as “Eden”. Help us look for ways to increase our partnership with SCPS, as we aim to enhance the awareness and elicit the participation of the next generation of conservationists.
