Thanks for checking out the Durham Christmas Bird Count info page! Click on the links below for forms and information. Some of this information is hosted on the Duke Natural History Society website, and kudos go to Josh Rose (now at the World Birding Center in south Texas) for originally establishing the online presence of the Durham CBC information with maps and area descriptions.
Details to follow! Contact me if you are interested in participating!
2007 Durham CBC Sunday December 16th
Countdown Dinner Announcement: Like last year, we'll gather at 5:30pm at El Corral restaurant in Loehmann's Plaza on Hillandale Rd. for a countdown/compilation to share our bird findings & stories of the day. Loehmann's Plaza is located on Hillandale Rd., a quarter mile north of I-85. We have a room reserved to the left as soon as you walk into the restaurant. See you there!
