There are many programs for monitoring the populations of birds over time. The Audubon Christmas Bird Count (CBC) is one of the oldest and has been a wonderful tradition among birders for over a century.

There are several CBCs in the Boise area. We’ll look at data from Idaho CBCs and how you can get involved.
