Raptor lovers like myself may want to check out the Raptor Nest Survey volunteer program through the Bureau of Land Management. Volunteers spend two field days per month from March to July observing an assigned site in Utah. There are no special birding abilities required. All you need is a pair of binoculars, a GPS unit, an e-mail address and to attend a training workshop that will be held Saturday, Feb. 28, at the Salt Lake Field Office of the BLM. Visit www.rins.org, send an e-mail to info@rins.org or call 801-977-4376 for more information.
