Rocky River Important Bird Area (IBA)

​The Rocky River Important Bird Area conservation initiative was really more about people than birds because it would study the impact of conservation on the quality of life of people who lived in the Rocky River watershed.

​Cleveland Lakefront Nature Preserve (Dike 14) IBA

In 2014, the Kirtland Bird Club and Western Cuyahoga Audubon Society began birding surveys at the Cleveland Lakefront Nature Preserve (formerly known as Dike 14). This citizen science project will occur year-round with a greater focus during migration season. It is expected to last for at least 10 years. 
  • Article: Bird Surveys at Cleveland Lakefront Nature Preserve (CLNP – also known as Dike 14)
  • The Survey will consist of 16 points along the trail which runs through CNLP.
  • It will take a total of two hours to walk the whole trail and hit all points.
  • Most groups will not hit all the points, and will use a far shorter amount of time to conduct their part of the survey.
  • This is a wonderful opportunity to conduct a significantly worthwhile citizen science project, aid in the conservation effort, and have the perfect excuse to make frequent birding visits to this beautiful park.
