Join Liberty Bird Alliance to participate in the 126th Audubon Christmas Bird Count on December 20th, 2025. Volunteers spread out across our designated 15-mile diameter circle to count all the winter species we see and hear. This important, long-running wildlife census collects data across North America (and a bit of South America) to assess the health of bird populations, and to help guide conservation action. More information on the history of the Christmas Bird Count can be found here: https://www.audubon.org/conservation/history-christmas-bird-count
There are several ways to participate in the count:
- Join an established group covering a specific area (team leaders will communicate start time and meeting location)
- Cover an unassigned area on your own (need to be able to identify winter birds of the area by sight or sound)
- Feeder-watch in your own yard (if it is located within our circle)
For additional information on any of these options, or to join the count, please contact our compiler Kristy Morley (kristy@wissahickontrials.org).
