The Mountwood Bird Club was formed in 1978. Members are from the Parkersburg / Vienna / Marietta area.
The club has a very active schedule with a birding outing nearly every week of the year, including some out-of-town trips and occasional evening programs. Membership is open to all who enjoy birding.
Club members also help local schools and Boy Scout and Girl Scout organizations with birding related activities. They also support local government organizations like the Division of Natural Resources and Fish and Wildlife Services in their programs.
The Mountwood Bird Club sponsors the annual Parkersburg Christmas Bird Count and the Spring Migration Count. They maintain a checklist and early and late dates for Wood County. They collect and report the quarterly sightings for the area.
