'Tis the season for the annual Audubon Christmas Birdcount. The 110th season runs through Jan 5th and there are birdcounts all over the U.S. and Central America. Each year's count adds to the information gained in previous years. Scientists rely on the data to help identify declining bird populations which are in most urgent need of conservation help. Check with your local Audubon chapter to see how you can participate.
