Subject: [texbirds] CBC season is just around the corner
It is hard to be thinking about CBCs after all we have recently been through
with Hurricane Harvey: health issues, destroyed/damaged homes and property,
days without power, and extensive amount of work getting our lives back to
"normal".
I will be completing my annual article next week on highest tallies of
individual species within the United States. That is normally the trigger for
me to send notices of CBC dates. The Annual CBC Edition will be sent out by
Audubon in November.
The CBC season runs from 14 December thru 5 January.
14 December is Thursday and the Guadalupe River Delta - McFaddin Family Ranches
is always held on the 1st Thursday
18 December is Monday and Matagorda County - Mad Island Marsh is always held on
the 1st Monday
19 December - the 2nd running of the Powderhorn CBC will be held. You can
contact the compiler Daniel Walker at daniel.walker@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx
27 December is the traditional date for the Jackson-Calhoun counties CBC. You
can contact the compiler Bob Friedrichs at bird.gried@xxxxxxxxx
28 December is the date for the Rockport CBC. You can contact the compiler
Claudia Dorn at catbirddorn@xxxxxxxxx
There are several groups across Texas who compile CBC dates. As soon as you
establish the date for your count, share it with these groups so we all can
schedule our holidays.
We will be using your CBC data to try to determine impacts of Hurricane Harvey
and other factors affecting our avian community.
There is still much work to do to get back to "Normal" following Harvey. Good
Luck and Take Care.
