December 14th begins this year's Audubon Christmas Bird Count season.
That's a mere month away and the Circle Compilers around Ohio are busily
working on their preparations. Check the Audubon web site for a circle near you
and join in. You'll meet some great people, have fun and contribute to an
important Audubon activity.
The Hoover Reservoir Christmas Bird Count (Delaware County) will be held
Saturday, December 17, 2011. I will have several teams meet at 8:00 AM in
the parking lot at the Hoover Reservoir Dam and send them out to cover the
east and west side of Hoover Reservoir and The Hoover Nature Preserve.
Additional teams will meet at Alum Creek State Park (8:00 AM), Highbanks Metro
Park (8:00 AM) and Sharon Woods Metro Park (10:00 AM), Inniswood Metro
gardens (8:00 AM), and in the vicinity of the Olentangy River north of
Worthington. If you would like to join one of the teams, give me a call at (614)
891-5706 or email me at [log in to unmask]
(mailto:[log in to unmask]) for details.
This is also a good time to remind Christmas Bird Count Compilers and
Participants that for the 2011 fall gun deer-hunting season, the Ohio
Department of Natural Resources has again extended the season to include extra
weekends. ODNR added an extra weekend in deer gun season on December 17 and 18,
2011. If you participate in any area that may have hunters present you
should wear something with Hunter Orange as a safety factor. The last thing you
want to do is to wear a white hat or any other white apparel that could
cause a hunter to think you are a white-tailed deer.
May we all have a safe and productive Christmas Bird Counts.
Charlie Bombaci, Compiler
Hoover Reservoir CBC Circle
