Get ready to grab your binoculars and head out to enjoy nature! The local chapter of the Audubon Society is hosting its annual Christmas Bird Count this Thursday, December 26, and it’s the perfect excuse to get outside and do something different during the holiday season.
This cherished tradition is an opportunity for bird lovers, families, and anyone curious about wildlife to contribute to an important cause. The event kicks off at 7:00 a.m. at the main entrance of the San José Estuary. Whether you’re a seasoned birdwatcher or a complete beginner, everyone is welcome to join. Bring along your camera, some water to stay hydrated, and maybe even pack a light lunch for later.
The Christmas Bird Count isn’t just about spotting colorful feathers and fascinating species; it’s part of a nationwide effort led by the National Audubon Society. The data collected during the event contributes to vital research, helping to protect birds and their habitats across the Americas.
What better way to wrap up the holiday season than spending a morning appreciating nature, learning about conservation, and meeting like-minded people? So, grab your friends, bring your family, and let’s make this Christmas Bird Count one to remember!
