Summary

    Birds of the Cook Arboretum Research Project (BCARP) is a citizen-supported research program to monitor the migrant and breeding forest-bird populations of the Cook Arboretum in Janesville, Wisconsin, and to document long-term changes in bird populations, species diversity, and habitat changes.

Volunteers Needed!

    Interested in helping the BCARP?  We need people to help sample birds in 2025! The sample dates will be Sunday, 8 June and Saturday, 5 July.  Expertise with forest birds not needed, as you can be paired with more experienced birders.  Please click on the Information for Participants link along the left margin for details.

Principle Investigators:

     Dr. Tom Klubertanz, Professor of Biology, University of Wisconsin-Whitewater at Rock County, Janesville, Wisconsin.

     Quentin Yoerger Evansville, Wisconsin.
