As part of the Verde Valley Birding and Nature Festival, help us dedicate two Important Bird Areas on Wednesday, April 22 at 4:30pm at the Cottonwood Public Library.
We'll celebrate the Camp Verde IBA and the Upper Verde River WA IBA sponsored by Northern Arizona Audubon Society and as a kick-off event for the Festival. We'll talk about the value of these areas to native birds and enjoy some complimentary snacks. Special thanks to all the volunteer surveyors who collected the bird data and our partners: Verde Valley Birding and Nature Festival, Friends of the Verde River, Arizona State Parks, Arizona Game & Fish Department, Northern Arizona Audubon Society, Prescott Audubon Society, Audubon Southwest. Join us, it will be a fun time!
