|| = || __ BIRD COUNT
The 71st Calgary Christmas Bird Count goes this Sunday (18th Dec). We will be birding in SAH starting from our place at 9:00am Sunday and proceeding in a clockwise direction. Later we will do University Heights and U of C. If you would like to join us for all or part of the count you are very welcome. Unusual birds seen between 15th and 21st Dec can also be added to the count list.
Among the unusual birds we would like to see this year are: Chukar (up to 5 recorded in University Heights this year), Gray Partridge (we haven't seen them in SAH since 5 Dec), Great-horned Owl seen on 14th Ave (earlier this month). Call on the cellphone if you see an unusual bird on Sunday (403 813 4457).
There are many other counts that occur this time of year and areas within the Calgary CBC that would welcome help - contact us if you need further information.
Happy birding and the very best of the holiday season.
