SEQUOYAH NATIONAL WILDLIFE REFUGE ANNUAL CHRISTMAS BIRD COUNT SCHEDULED
November 2012
This year marks the 113th anniversary of the National Audubon Society’s Christmas Bird Count. The Christmas Bird Count (CBC) is a long-standing program based on citizen science involvement. It is an early-winter bird census, where thousands of volunteers across the U.S., Canada and 19 countries in the Western Hemisphere, go out over a 24 hour period to count birds. The annual Sequoyah National Wildlife Refuge Christmas Bird Count will be held on Wednesday, December 19, 2012, and is free of charge to all participants. Volunteers interested in participating should arrive at 7:00AM at the refuge headquarters. From I-40 take the Vian exit 297, travel approximately 3 miles south on the county road, follow the signs to the refuge. Everyone is welcome to participate!
