Montreal Christmas Bird Count

We have just about finalized the sector team leaders and team members for Saturday, December 15th.

I would just like to remind everyone to take note of any out of the ordinary sightings during the Christmas Count Week. They can also be noted in the count statistics. Please keep details of where and when they were seen. From December 12th to 14th and December 16th to 18th, 3 days on either side of the actual count day of December 15th, make up the Count Week.

There are a few sectors where we could definitely use a few more participants.  If any of you would like to participate in the Christmas Count but have not yet contacted me, please do so as soon as possible  514-637-2141 or by e-mail. We can easily place you on a team.

There are a few sectors in particular where we could use another person or two to join the existing teams. They are: South Shore Sector 4 - The Ste-Catherine Locks area Montreal Downtown Sector 2- Summit Park/Westmount/TMR West, etc Montreal Downtown Sector 4- Mount Royal Cemetery Montreal West-Sector 3- Lasalle/Angrignon Park/Montreal West

Finally, a note for the teams covering the Southwest sectors off the island (Chateauguay, Kahnawake, Ste-Catherine, St-Constant, Delson), the Mercier Bridge is scheduled to have one side closed to traffic next weekend, with two-way traffic, one lane in each direction on the open side. This may affect your travel plans to and from these areas on Count Day.
