Stephen Lindsay - Avian Monitoring Intern

Category: Wildlife

Sapsucker Woods: The Cornell Lab of Ornithology seeks two to four interns to be involved in ongoing avian studies of Sapsucker Woods Sanctuary in Ithaca, New York. Interns will gain experience studying breeding birds through nest searching and monitoring, banding nestlings, spot-mapping, and conducting point counts. No experience is necessary, but an earnest interest in building a strong skill set in ornithological skills is essential. The main species looked at for this internship are Wood thrush, Oven bird, and Red-eyed vireo.
