Report quail, turkey sightings and help biologists measure the hatch
Citizen scientists across Arkansas can help the Arkansas Game and Fish Commission keep tabs on this year’s eastern wild turkey and northern bobwhite hatch by reporting any birds of these two species they see during their summer travels.
According to David Moscicki, Turkey Program coordinator for the AGFC, biologists can combine data collected from the public with traditional survey methods to get a more complete picture of the abundance of birds in an area and the relative success of their reproductive efforts this spring.
