your banded birds.

mark your map!
• April/May = Spring = blue dot
• June/July = Summer = green dot
• August/Sept/Oct = fall = red dot
• November –March = winter = yellow
dot
• 5 minutes to mark your
maps!

• Spring is mating season. What special resources might the birds
need during this time?
• Why do birds migrate?
• Based on the dangers discussed what strategies would you
recommend to protect these birds?
