This will be our 46th year of participating in the national count. Everyone, novice or experienced, is welcome to join us on this fun day. Small groups in one or two cars count all the birds they find in their assigned area, within our designated 15-mile radius circle centered around Milford, for whatever hours they choose.

Each group has a leader who will have received appropriate materials beforehand. Alternatively, instead of joining a group, you can count birds at your own feeder off and on throughout the day if you are within our circle.

If you are a new counter for either the group counts or the feeder watch, please contact Sandy Bright at sbright@hartwick.edu or phone 607-287-4465. People who have participated before will be contacted.
