Florida Scrub-Jay Survey
Your continued support and monitoring of the scrub-jays is invaluable to the
progress we make towards preserving and protecting scrub-jays throughout
the state. Thanks in part to your efforts; Lake County has recently received
a grant to put together a Habitat Conservation Plan (HCP).
Keep your eyes and ears open and phone calls and e-mails coming when you spot
a scrub-jay. (352)-429-5566 or

Lake County Adopt-A-Roadway Schedule
Despite the high humidity and heat we had a good turn out for last Saturday's Lake County "Adopt-A Roadway" program.
Participants logged in 8 bags of trash with an
assortment of goodies. The most unique items were infant socks,
ladies bathing suit top, baseball, long heavy duty PVC pipes, golf
balls.The winner of
the Florida Scrub-Jay Trail T-shirt went to young, first time volunteer
Wendy Thompson.
The remaining schedule for 2010 is Saturday, September
18th and Saturday, December 18th.
We ask for your help from 8am-11am
each of those days.
