If any hobby could help us survive this Covid-19 pandemic while being safe, it is ours! Whether it's from the comfort of our homes, out driving or walking on trails, we can still B-I-R-D.
Needless to say the upcoming Christmas Bird Counts will again be different for field participants. If you still wish to participate, I can only suggest using walkie-talkie type technology between vehicles, being in your birding bubble, the wearing of masks, and being physically distanced.
Another thing is that optical equipment such as telescopes should not be shared. Our compiling meetings which normally take place after the counts will definitely not take place.
For more info contact the compiler, Christine Trudeau at cristeentb5@gmail.com
