The Hoover  Reservoir Christmas Bird Count (Delaware County) will be held
Saturday, December  20, 2008. I will have several teams meeting at 8:00 AM in the
parking lot off  Sunbury Road at Hoover Dam to cover the east and west side
of the reservoir.  Additional teams will meet at Alum Creek State Park;
Highbanks Metro Park (Check  the winter issue of ParkScope or call the park
naturalist to confirm the  starting time), Sharon Woods Metro Park (meeting at 10:00
AM); and Camp Mary  Orton. If you would like to join one of the teams other than
those starting at  Hoover Reservoir, give me a call at (614) 891-5706 or
email me at [log in to unmask] (mailto:[log in to unmask])  for details
and to enable  me to alert the area team leader to expect you.
This is a good time  to remind Christmas Bird Count Compilers and
Participants that for the 2008 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 20 and 21, 2008. 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 Count.
Charlie Bombaci,  Compiler
Hoover Reservoir  CBC Circle
