EDR is looking to hire qualified Field Survey Technicians to conduct avian surveys at proposed solar and wind energy project sites in New York State. These positions are temporary (i.e., on a per-project or per-season basis) but may be extended depending on additional project opportunities and job performance. Avian surveys will primarily involve afternoon and evening surveys from fixed locations, with a focus on detection and observation of grassland raptors (e.g., northern harriers [Circus hudsonius]) in rural settings under winter conditions. Preference will be given to candidates with: (1) prior experience conducting avian surveys and/or bird-related scientific research in the northeastern U.S.; (2) knowledge of and experience identifying birds that occur within New York St
