After many years, David Mitchell has finally retired as the compiler of the
Bastrop CBC. As I understand it, he tried to retire a few years back, but
that didn’t work out. This time, he says he’s serious about retiring! Thank
you David for all of your time and effort compiling the count!


Laurie Foss and I will now be compiling the count. After much consulting
and surveying of prior participants, we have decided to continue to hold
the count on January 1st. From our experience, counting birds in Bastrop is
the perfect way to bring in the new year! So, join us on Wednesday, January
1st, for this year’s count. We need many birders to adequately survey the
birds in the circle area to find all of the expected species and the rare
species visiting the area. We would especially like to have some feeder
watchers, so if you live within the circle and have bird feeders, please
participate.



For more information about CBC’s in general, see

information about the Bastrop CBC including a map showing the count circle,
check out Laurie’s new website at www.bastropcbc.com. Email Shelia Hargis
and Laurie Foss at bastroptxcbc@xxxxxxxxx with questions or to register.
Thank you for participating in this important citizen-science project!**
