CHRISTMAS BIRD COUNT 2019
UMBA invites anyone interested in helping with this year’s census to come to the December 9, 2019 chapter meeting, 7:00 PM in the FWP Regional Headquarters conference room (4600 Giant Springs Road). Participants will be assigned to one of 10 area teams with experienced team leaders. Some areas are primarily drive/stop. Other areas involve a lot of walking. Inexperienced birders can serve as the team scribe, help spot, take pictures or count while learning to identify the birds. The leader packets will be given out at the meeting. If you can’t get out for the day (or half-day) you can add to the data collected by counting the birds in your yard or at your feeder. Take 10 minutes to observe and count. Send your results to our compiler – Nora Gray by December 28th.
