Collision monitoring will take place in the early mornings. Monitors will work in teams of 2-3, patrolling a 2-mile predetermined route around 10 buildings in downtown, collecting data on birds that have been injured or killed by striking buildings.

High Island Work Day with One Tree Planted

Saturday, October 8, 2022
8:30 am12:00 pm
High Island Sanctuaries (Boy Scout Woods, Smith Oaks)

Meet us at this internationally known birding hot spot and help us beautify one of our 4 nature sanctuaries here, improving both the visitor infrastructure and wildlife habitat. This is a great opportunity to get outside while making a difference!

This work day in particular will be very special thanks to a partnership with One Tree Planted. For this work day, Volunteers will be planting over 500 native plants! The main plants will be Aquatic Milkweed, Downy Lobelia, Yellow and/or Longbract Wild Indigo, Virginia Wildrye, Red Buckeye, Little Bluestem, Texas Grama, Gulf Muhly, Illinios Bundleflower, and Clustered Bushmint.

More on our partner, One Tree Planted:
During the months of September and October, One Tree Planted celebrates Plant a Tree Day, a global day of action that inspires thousands of volunteers around the world to plant trees, remove invasive species, clean up litter, establish community gardens and more! Plant a Tree day started in 2018, when 30 community reforestation events were organized by One Tree Planted, engaging 600 volunteers to plant over 7,000 trees and shrubs. Today, Plant a Tree Day has grown into a global movement that brings us together to make a positive environmental impact.

More on High Island monthly work days:

Work Days are held once a month, October through March on the second Saturday of the month. We start work around 8:30 AM and work until about noon, when we break for lunch, provided by Houston Audubon and prepared by the lunch crew. Lunch at the picnic area of Boy Scout Woods is a good chance to visit with other volunteers and recharge from a morning of exercise and work . After lunch, we take about an hour to tie up any loose ends and clean up. Please bring your own refillable water bottles and lots of ice water.

Collision monitoring will take place in the early mornings. Monitors will work in teams of 2-3, patrolling a 2-mile predetermined route around 10 buildings in downtown, collecting data on birds that have been injured or killed by striking buildings.

Volunteers do not need to have expert knowledge about birds - data is entered into the iNaturalist app where others can help identify or confirm the species. Volunteers will receive a detailed training on collision monitoring and data collection, as well as what to do with injured or killed birds that are found in the course of monitoring. All the tools and materials needed to perform the job will be provided, but we need enthusiastic and meticulous monitors to patrol the routes daily.

We will be holding a mandatory training for volunteers to cover all needed info before volunteering begins. This training will be recorded for those who are unable to attend, and we require all volunteers to confirm that they have watched and understood the training prior to signing up for a monitoring day.
