Christmas Bird Count

Overview

December 20
8:30 am
Free

The Audubon Society’s Christmas Bird Count relies on volunteers to survey and tally every bird that they see. We will conduct surveys in the Eagle and Dotsero areas. Then we’ll come together afterward to turn in data sheets, discuss the birds we’ve seen, and share some food & beverages.

 

Meeting location: Meet at Yeti’s Grind in Eagle, Colorado

We will split into groups and survey specific sections from 9am – 1pm. Many sections are most easily surveyed by car, and we rely on participants’ willingness to carpool with others. After surveying, we will meet at Second Street Tavern in Eagle, Colorado, to turn in data sheets, share about our day, and celebrate our successes.

The Eagle Valley Circle includes areas around the Town of Eagle and the Town of Gypsum, and south towards Sylvan Lake State Park. The Dotsero circle includes areas along the Colorado River Road up to the Red Dirt Creek Open Space and along Sweetwater Road. Section assignments and specifics will be provided at the event. If you’d like to join, please sign up so we can plan accordingly. All birding abilities are welcome!
