The following is a new addition to our Citizen Science section.  To 
explore other "requests for information," check the MOS web site:

I'm writing from the Journey North Headquarters in Minnesota to ask your 
help in tracking the robin migration.  Sharing this request with your 
Bird Chatters would be much appreciated.

Journey North is a non-profit educational project that engages school 
age children in the study of global migrations. Our students report 
sightings of many migrating animals to our Web site. Your sightings 
added to our map would create better patterns for migration studies.

Upon sighting robins in your area, please contact me promptly with the location and date. We are interested in:

*Robin (first SEEN)

*Robin (first HEARD singing)

*Robin (wave SEEN)

*Robin (OTHER observations)

We will value any sighting reports you are able to make.

Happy birding!!
