Sullivan County Audubon Society has participated in National
Audubon’s Christmas Bird Count every year since 1950!
We have not missed a single count in over 60 years!
The data for all of the Christmas Counts conducted all
over North America are now available online through the National
Audubon Society and the Cornell Lab of Ornithology.
Our local count is called the “Monticello, NY”
count. If you want to see the information we have contributed
over the years, including the kinds of birds and the numbers
found, or if you'd like to learn more about the Christmas
Bird Count, check out National Audubon's CBC
website.
