LAS Receives a Grant to Support Pinyon Jay Community Science Project

We are so excited to be launching the Pinyon Jay Community Science Project with our partners at Great Basin Bird Observatory (GBBO). This project will allow birders of all levels to participate in the conservation of an iconic Nevada species. GBBO is setting up a website that will be the clearinghouse for all things Pinyon Jay, including information on the species, how to get involved, and maps sharing the importance of  the work of our community scientists. To support this website, we submitted a proposal for the George Whittell Nevada Environmental Fund and recieved a grant to pay for the first year of this program. We are excited to bring on more volunteers to join in this effort. No experience is necessary and this is a great opportunity for birders of all levels to support an important conservation program.
