Students from the Diversified Occupations Program at the
Hannaford Career Center spent time teaching third and fourth graders
about bird banding. Students had the chance to observe a variety
of real birds, make their own band, and learn how birds enter and
are removed from a "mist net" in order to be banded and have other data
recorded. Follow the link below to check out the D. O. webpage and
watch a video about the students and their amazing work.
