I plan to update this post with information and resources for citizen science, so If you have interest in this topic, keep checking back to see if there are any updates, or let me know about a resource so that I can add it to this post.
If you would like to be a Citizen Scientist and participate in our bird watching project, you can register at http://ebird.org/content/ebird/ and submit your observations. We have a birding hotspot here at Middletown High and you can watch birds at the pond and submit your observations to the Middletown High School Pond birding hotspot: http://ebird.org/ebird/hotspot/L2346801 Check it out!
