Christmas Bird Count

© Dick Downey
Dec. 15, 2007 through Jan. 5, 2008
Each year thousands of Wyoming citizens led by local birders participate in one or more of the twenty-two plus Christmas Bird Counts held in Wyoming. This holiday season join with birders and nature lovers who participate in this important citizen science effort across Wyoming. The one-day bird counts provide valuable data about the number of bird species and numbers of each species occurring within a set geographic area. Whether you just watch your bird feeder or spend a full day in the field with friends, it is a great way to have fun and gather important information on bird populations.

 

Help is needed on many of these counts, so find one that interests you and contact the compiler for more information.
