Yes, we're still a long way from CBC time (but wouldn't cooler temperatures be
nice??) but I received an announcement today that I thought I'd share with
other TN birders.
Beginning this year, there should be a way to pre-register for any CBC's that
you do. You will also be able to pre-pay online the $5 fee per count. The
exciting news here is that for people pre-registering for U.S. counts there
will be a four count ($20.00) cap per observer ? for that amount, anyone can
do as many CBCs as they want for a given season.
Most people do one or two counts, but some of us have been doing more than
four every year - hopefully this will encourage more of you to do extra
counts! Last year, Illinois birder Kelly J. McKay did 20!!! If you
participated in a Christmas Bird Count and paid the fee last year, you would
have received a copy of the CBC report with his story. If not, here is a link
to read about this "mad counter":
