Hello Birders,
If any of you are interested in being a part of the Thanksgiving Window Watch
Bird Count, you may participate on Thanksgiving Day. The count is for one
hour, any time during the day you choose. Select a circular area 15 feet in
diameter to include feeders, bird-baths, etc. Imagine the circle extending
upward
as a cylinder. Count the number of birds of each species which come into this
cylinder during the hour. Judge the actual number of birds NOT the number of
VISITS. count only the birds you see in the circle at one moment, then add
others only if you know they are different individuals in the circle. There is
a
form that usually goes with this count but I cannot put it on the email so send
in the birds you see both in the circle as well as others outside the circle.
I will tally them for you correctly. You may mail me your results at this
address:
Susan Wingfield
556 Lady Slipper Lane
Lynchburg, VA 24502
Or you mail email me at IGunny@xxxxxxx.
I will try and put the final tally on the VA-Bird sometime in Jan or Feb.
Good Luck and Happy Birding!
Thanksgiving Window Watch Chairman, Susan Wingfield
