Arizona Christmas Bird Counts
The National
Audubon Society has conducted Christmas bird counts since 1900. Volunteers from
across North America and beyond take to the field during one calendar day between December
14 and January 5 to record every bird encountered within a designated 15-mile diameter
circle. These records now comprise an extensive database that helps to monitor
winter bird populations and the overall health of the environment. Participants are
typically assigned to teams based on their bird identification skill level and endurance.
A $5.00 participation fee defrays a portion of the cost of tabulating and
publishing the count results. Help is needed on most of these counts, so find one
that interests you and contact the compiler for more information.
