CBCs complement the various breeding bird surveys that take place in spring and early summer, completing the picture with information about the birds that spend the winter in our circles.
However, you don’t need to be an expert birder. You will be part of a team and every pair of eyes and ears is helpful.

If you live within one of our circles, you can participate as a FeederWatcher, even if you can’t join one of teams of volunteers in the field. And, if you are not able to do that, you can help us by making sure that your feeders are full.

This event will be followed by an informal social get together at the Montreal West Curling Club, 17 Ainslie Road in Montreal West, at approximately 4:00 p.m. All participants are invited to attend for a bite to eat and to submit their findings of the day. The rough results are tabulated and everyone is encouraged to share their birding experiences of the day.

After the count, we gather at the St-Hubert in Vaudreuil-Dorion and exchange stories about our day and more important give your tally sheet. If you can’t make it you can send your tally sheet via email. Every participant will receive all the instructions on how to proceed and a tally sheet you can complete either by hand or on your computer.
