Corey Marsh Ecological Research Center

The 400-acre MSU AgBioResearch Corey Marsh Ecological Research Center serves as a hub for scientific research in natural resource restoration and management.

This study documents shocking declines of birds in NA. But read beyond the title and see that one of the key findings in this study is that with correct actions we can do something to begin to turn this around. Let this spur humans to take action. #bringbirdsback

Fantastic to see kids and adults enjoying all that CMERC has to offer!

[Corey Marsh Ecological Research Center @ABR_CMERC]

Visitors of all ages visited CMERC for @MSUSciFest and learned how scientists study CWD in deer, health of migratory landbirds, and ways birds transport ticks. And they all just enjoyed exploring the beautiful Corey Marsh. @MSUAgBio @CANRatMSU

[Michigan State Bird Observatory @BULAbirds]

We are excited to continue hosting bird banding activities by the Michigan State Bird Observatory (MSBO) this year! CMERC has 10 mist nets right next to our Bird Banding Barn, which offers indoor accommodations for MSBO staff and visitors.
