Christmas Bird Counts have been an Audubon Society tradition for over 100 years!
Join the nation’s longest-running community science bird project with PVAS’s Inwood Count.
This event is free and open to the public. REGISTRATION IS REQUIRED. Please email Bob Dean to register.
PVMN Volunteer Hours Eligible
There are many ways you can participate:
- Individually – If you live in the Inwood area, you may count birds at your home feeders and report the results. Please click here to check the map to see if you are in the Inwood circle. If so, please register below and then print the Inwood tally sheet to record your observations.
- In a Group – You may also like taking a more active role by joining a team of birders and heading out in the fields. Get together with your team to drive to the various locations, or, in your own vehicle, join a caravan of birders. Each team will be assigned a section within the Inwood Circle.
MAPS: Here is a link to the entire Inwood Circle. After registration, you will be sent a map highlighting your individual section. The maps can be printed out from your home computer or downloaded to your phone for use in an interactive application, Avenza Maps. Check out this YouTube video to learn how to use Avenza Maps.
TALLY CHECKLIST: This checklist may be used by those birding at home as well as those birding a section in a group. Your completed tally sheet can be emailed to bobdean52@gmail.com.
TALLY RALLY: TBD
