Hello everyone, The Fremont Christmas Bird Count will take place on Sunday, December 30th. We will meet at Rudy's Restaurant * 600 East State Street * in Fremont at 7:00 AM to assign areas of the count circle. Mother Nature's show of force last weekend resulted in the cancellation of several CBC's, which kind of stunk! But, there's always a bright side! The weather also brought reports of some interesting birds in this area. The Fremont CBC covers some pretty cool spots and I encourage everyone to come out and see what rarities we can locate. Afterward we'll all get together at the Pickerel Creek Lodge for a Compilation Pizza Party. These compilation parties really add an extra element of fun to CBC's, as everyone comes together to share their discoveries. I hope you'll join Black Swamp Bird Observatory, the Ohio Young Birders Club, and Green Creek Wildlife Society as we do our part to celebrate this time honored tradition!

Happy Holidays & Good Birds to all, Kim Kaufman **************************************See AOL's top rated recipes (http://food.aol.com/top-rated-recipes?NCID=aoltop00030000000004) ______________________________________________________________________ Ohio-birds mailing list, a service of the Ohio Ornithological Society.
