  3. Goals of Project 1. Track the ecological condition of plants and animals and their response to environmental and climatic change 2. Engage and inform a variety of groups around the Albuquerque area

  4. Potential Questions • Does the number of birds change once wetlands are established? • Does phenology of plants and animals change from year to year? • Are any new species arriving at the refuge? • Do we see similar phenology at the refuge and other locations in Albuquerque?

  5. Resources available to you: • NN/Valle de Oro webpage- usanpn.org/fws/vdo • Nature’s Notebook website- nn.usanpn.org • Q&A tab on google schedule • Email list of other volunteers • Email Erin or Jennifer
