SUMMARY:Lakeland Christmas Bird Count
DESCRIPTION:What is a Christmas Bird Count? \nThe longest running Citizen Science survey in the world\, Christmas Bird Counts provide critical data on bird population trends. Tens of thousands of participants know that it also a lot of fun. Families and students\, birders and scientists\, armed with binoculars\, bird guides and checklists go out on an annual mission\, often before dawn\, to count every bird they can find in their territory of the count circle – owls\, rails\, sparrows\, herons\, shorebirds\, warblers\, hawks\, eagle\, blackbirds… every type of bird. Audubon and other organizations use data collected to help guide conservation action. \nHow can I get involved? \nWe need feeder-watchers and field observers. Birders of all ability levels are welcome. Field observers can join a team covering a portion of the count circle by car\, foot and/or boat. Just email Cole Fredericks cfredricks@tampabay.rr.com and we will be in touch to find the best fit for you. Explore the interactive count circle map here. \nChristmas Bird Count | Audubon https://www.audubon.org/conservation/science/christmas-bird-count \nSponsored by the Lake Region Audubon
