The Christmas Bird Count is a National Audubon Society event spanning Dec 14 to Jan 5 each year. It began on Christmas Day 1900 founded by Frank Chapman to replace the Side Hunt with a census of birds.
The article explains how volunteers in the Christmas Bird Count tally birds across a 177 square mile circle on a chosen day. It notes that results track population changes, helps gauge environmental health, and highlights West Nile impact on blue jays and crows, with no large nationwide declines observed yet.
