Litchfield Hills Audubon Society: Christmas Bird Count 4 Kids

Children and parents are invited to experience this wholesome family-centered citizen science adventure. We will meet at the White Memorial A.B. Ceder Room (lower floor of the museum building) for a brief orientation. Then we will walk to the feeders outside the museum and around Ongley Pond to count birds by sight, using binoculars, and by sound, using the Merlin app. Afterward, we will gather in the Ceder Room to tabulate the results and enjoy pizza, cookies, and hot chocolate. A great way to spend a winter day and help scientists capture vital information about bird populations. Wear warm jackets and boots. Binoculars will be provided. Bring your own, if you have a pair.

Any questions, call Vickie Dauphinais at 860-805-9167. Pre-registration is appreciated at lhasjunior@gmail.com.
