Join the Alafia Banks Christmas Bird Count Dec. 14

This year, we'll participate in the National Audubon Society’s 126th Christmas Bird Count!

We will be out hooting for owls in the pre-dawn dark and counting every bird that we can find in the TAS sector. Participants do not have to join in all day — we welcome everyone to come and help count for whatever portion of the day you can!

If you live in our count area, you can even just report the species that you see from your home!

Contact trip leader Mary Keith at mary.keith@tampaaudubon.org to join in Tampa Audubon’s Sector. To join the count not in Tampa Audubon’s sector contact Charlie Fisher at chf1shercpa@hotmail.com  

Sign up here for a CBC overview webinar for participants (recording released Dec. 1). Once you sign up, you'll also receive information on how to join an optional follow-up live Q&A session hosted by CBC experts from Audubon and Birds Canada on December 4th from 7-8pm eastern time.
