Hudson Christmas bird Count

The next CBC in the Hudson area will take place on Sunday 3 January 2010
The count takes place in the area shown on this map

Interested in taking part? Then contact the compiler, Alison Bentley at 450-458-8076 or by email at alison.bentley@sympatico.ca

The Hudson CBC will require about 50-60 keen people in the field, split into 17 different parties. Team leaders from last year will be receiving a list of previous volunteers and are asked to contact them to confirm involvement. We are always looking for new observers; please let me know if you would like to be assigned a group. People who requested a change of route last year should contact me ASAP, so that we can discuss options.

The Count area stretches from Île Perrot west to partway up Mont Rigaud and from Valleyfield north to Oka. There are many different habitats and both walking and driving options are available.

Once the birds have been counted we will meet together to compile the results, eat chili and soup and enjoy each other's company! Contributions of supplementary foodstuffs are always welcome. This year the post count get-together will not be at the Bentley’s as originally intended but at the Kinsman’s at 112 Oakland in Hudson, Tel 450-458-5183..

Please contact Alison Bentley if you have any questions or would like to volunteer
