Set this date aside for the Christmas Bird Count with San Juan Islands Audubon Society.

Every year's count brings something different from climbing over downed trees after a big wind storm, watching a magnificent flight of Pacific Loons or maybe finding a flock of Western Bluebirds! There are many ways to participate like counting in your down your road or backyard where we really need your help or going out with a group for a good part of the day. You don't have to be an expert but you do have to have enthusiasm for nature.

Even if you don't count please let us know if you see any of these species the week of the count or let us know ahead of time so we can look for them: small hawks, mourning doves, owls, hummingbirds, sapsuckers, shrikes, jays, and western bluebirds. If you live on the shoreline we need your help with shorebirds and marine birds.

Many routes need better coverage so call today to see what we have for you. For more information and to join call: Barbara Jensen, 378-3068.
