The Christmas Bird Count
The Christmas Bird Count (CBC), the nation’s longest-running community science bird project, occurs from December 14 to January 5 every year. Learn more about the event on the Audubon website.
Join us for the 2024 Christmas Bird Count on December 15!
Quinnipiac Valley Audubon Society is happy to host the CBC every year! 2024 marks the 54th CBC for us. The QVAS CBC covers 15 miles in diameter, which covers all or a portion of 12 different towns (see the event page). We count every individual bird seen and heard from within the boundaries, listed by species.
If you live in or are willing to travel to our circle, to help us count birds for the day, let us know! See the official event page here. If you are interested in participating, please email Melissa mbaston@gmail.com.
