77^th Annual Birmingham Audubon Society Christmas Bird Count

This year’s BAS Christmas Bird Count will be our 77^th and all BAS members and friends are invited to participate in this historic count, to be held Saturday, December 22, 2012.  The Birmingham Audubon Society CBC was begun in 1946 and thanks to the continued support of our dedicated members and friends this wonderful Christmas tradition continues to this day.  Consider making the Christmas Bird Count a part of your holiday tradition and join the fun on count day

I invite all of our members to consider participating in the count by contacting an area leader to make arrangements to join the group. If you are not able or do not wish to participate, but have some unusual winter birds visiting your feeders that we should record for the count, please call us in advance.  We especially would love to hear from you if you have some owls in your neighborhood or wintering hummingbirds!

Get your holidays off to a merry start by joining in this historic count.  David George will handle compiling duties and Jim and Dee King will host our compilation at their home, located at 3842 South Cove Road, Mountain Brook, 35213.  Call Dee if you need directions: 205-871-8840.  The compilation will begin at 5:00 p.m. and light refreshments will be provided.

Contact Greg Harber at 205-251-2133 for more information.  All levels of birders are welcome and needed.
