Description:   The annual Christmas Bird Count for Kitchener will take place on December 17th and the Cambridge CBC is December 18th. New participants are always needed to complete this census and make it successful. If you would like to take part in the count but are unsure of what’s involved, then join Neil to learn the basics and gain self-confidence to volunteer for this year’s CBC. Dress warmly and bring your binoculars, camera, field guide, notepad, pen and pencil. Neil confesses that he is also using this outing as a means of scouting out this area for rare birds in advance of the count itself. Sturdy hiking footwear is suggested.

Registration is required by contacting Neil.
