The Art of the Bird Count
By Alan Contreras
Most birders have taken part in a Christmas Bird Count (CBC), but few have organized and compiled one. This article is intended as a guide for new compilers and a refresher for compilers and team leaders. It also provides some guidance for team leaders and members on count day.
I have some experience as a CBC compiler at Cottage Grove (1971-73), Florence (1983-87) and Coquille Valley, Oregon (1991-present) CBCs and I have participated in 15 of Oregon’s CBCs as well as counts in Missouri. Counts in other regions may have unique conditions, but much of this article may be useful to them as well.
