First I came across a great blog over at Scientific American entitled “Budding Scientist”. Then I found several articles about a wonderful group looking for volunteers to help with their project entitled the “Whale Song Project” and when all was said and done I started thinking about a project that’s been sitting on my dining room table that’s been sitting there for quite some time with a group called the “Mastodon Matrix Project“. So anyway, that’s how I came to this post, Citizen Scientist.
My kids have done Butterfly Counts and of course there’s our annual event of Amphibian Night with the Missouri Conservation Department. Hopefully we’ll finish the aforementioned one sitting on the kitchen table during the holidays.
See you outside (or at the dining room table) !

P.S. I have a list somewhere of like twenty projects that I found online that I’ll try and track down. Never mind, I found it, it’s here. The website is called The Daily Green. I also found a website where you can search for projects and it’s called SciStarter. It does take however, a little digging to get information such as a website, on the individual projects
