Christmas Bird Count

Your eyes, ears, and enthusiasm are requested for a birding excursion in Macricostas Preserve as part of the nation’s longest-running community science bird project, Audubon’s Christmas Bird Count (CBC).

The CBC was created to document trends in North American bird populations over time. This project, as with so many others, relies on public input and exemplifies the value of community science: a method where non-professionals perform meaningful research. We welcome all levels of experience from seasoned ornithologists to first-time birders. Traversing a boardwalk through meadow, skirting the edge of a giant field, and scanning Meeker Swamp from a viewing platform will surely turn up an array of species and be a great opportunity to build birding skills in a group setting.
