SUMMARY:Christmas Bird Count 2021
DESCRIPTION;ENCODING=QUOTED-PRINTABLE:\n\nOn Sunday, Dec. 19th, Evergreen Audubon will conduct the 53rd Christmas
  Bird Count for the Evergreen/Idaho Springs area.  This is one of about 250
 0 Christmas counts held each year throughout the Western Hemisphere.\n\n\nO
 n that day we will head out in small groups to find as many species and ind
 ividual birds as we can in a 15-mile-diameter circle that extends from Robi
 nson Hill Road on the north to just south of the Brook Forest Inn; and from
  near Echo Lake on the west to the bottom of Kerr Gulch on the eastern side
 . Folks of all abilities and ages are encouraged to participate by joining 
 one of our fifteen groups for all, or part, of the day.\n\n\n \nPine Grosbe
 ak (c) Bill Schmoker\n\nIf getting outside seems a bit daunting in mid-Dece
 mber, we also need people to stay at home and count the birds that come to 
 their feeders. Feeder-counters made a huge difference in last year’s result
 s.  Contact me, Chuck Aid, at This email address is being protected from sp

		, if you would like to be a feeder counter.\n\n\nEach year we seem to 
 have several interesting stories that emerge from our day in the field. In 
 2014 it snowed all day and drove large numbers of Pine Grosbeaks and Cassin
 ’s Finches down from the higher elevations. In 2015 we had gloriously mild 
 weather allowing us to record almost 2000 more individual birds than the pr
 ior year, and to set a new record for our area of 57 species. Then, 2016 wa
 s the Year of the Juncos, with 2171 individuals of this one species.  Final
 ly, 2017 was the No Snow Year leading to low counts for the Rosy-Finches.  
 And, then, in 2018 we trumped ourselves again by finding 58 species, and we
  did well with species from both lower and higher elevations.  2019 brought
  us a pair of Trumpeter Swans; and 2020, the Covid count, was truly incredi
 ble with a doubling of our number of feeder-counters to 51, and, subsequent
 ly, an all time high number of birds, 9197, and a remarkable 2182 Pygmy Nut
 hatches.\n\n\nAs usual, this year we will continue to pay special attention
  to the Mountain Chickadees and Pygmy Nuthatches, looking for high counts i
 n the hope that we can once again be the world champs for both of these spe
 cies. We’ve been the Mountain Chickadee world champs for several years in a
  row now, but those rascals out in San Francisco have been giving us a nip 
 and tuck competition for the Pygmy Nuthatch high count.\n\n\nAfter a full d
 ay of counting birds, participants are invited to one of Evergreen Audubon’
 s premier events of the year – the Tally Rally. This is a traditional pot-l
 uck supper, where we share our findings and adventures of the day. This yea
 r’s hosts are Rachel and David Hutchison, who have generously made their ho
 me available for the occasion.\n\n\nYou are invited to attend Evergreen Aud
 ubon’s Dec. 2 chapter meeting where you can learn more about the Christmas 
 Bird Count, talk with area leaders, practice identifying birds, sign up to 
 be a feeder counter, and also sign up to bring a dish to the potluck.\n\n\n
 You may register here for the bird counting portion of the day, and I will 
 get in touch with you to help find a group for you to join, or, if you are 
 an old hand at this, you may just get in touch with whatever area leader yo
 u have gone out with previously, or you can wait for an area leader to init
 iate contact. The bottom line – if you want to make sure that you are in th
 e loop, register here, and I will be in touch.  In addition, to register fo
 r the Tally Rally go to this link…..\n\n\nThanks,\n\n\nChuck Aid, Director 
 of Bird Monitoring\n\n\nRegister here\n
