You’re invited to a free 2-day volunteer training workshop for FrogWatch USA
at the Pender County Public Library—Hampstead Branch
Day 1 - February 21, 2025 10:30 a.m. - 4:30 p.m.
Day 2 - February 28, 2025 10:30 a.m. - 1:30 p.m.
By attending the FREE 2-day training, you will learn to identify local frog and toad species by their calls. Then you can contribute to scientific research by reporting species you hear during listening sessions. No previous scientific background or knowledge of amphibians is required. FrogWatch is a citizen science project for anyone with a heart for wildlife and a desire to protect it.
Day1 will conclude with a simple knowledge assessment. Participants will become FrogWatch USA volunteers. Please bring a waste-free lunch and reusable water bottle.
Day 2 will provide practice of FrogWatch USA protocols and call listening.
