Starkville birdwatchers receive top honor
A group of local birdwatchers recently helped bring some acclaim to the state of Mississippi.
Oktibbeha Audubon Society members Terry Schiefer, of Starkville, and Jim and Dianne Patterson, of Columbus, were on a birdwatching team dubbed “The Mississippi Team” this fall in Audubon Alaska’s first-ever Arctic Refuge Fall Migration Birding Challenge.
