Join us for the historic Silver Reef Christmas Bird Count on Saturday, December 26. We'll be following COVID-19 protocols to keep everyone safe. These include:

1. We have canceled the in-person compilation gathering. We'll conduct it via Zoom.

2. Social distancing or masking is required at all times in the field.

3. Carpooling may only occur within existing familiar or social “pod” groups.

As never before we need lots of birders, whether beginners or experts, to find the feathered beasts using a 7.5 radius of Leeds, Utah, as a winter hideout. This count covers diverse habitats in southwest Utah, including ponds, reservoirs, historical sites, red sandstone deserts and cliffs, and usually warm winter weather. Please register with the lead compiler, Marshall Topham, (marshalltopham@gmail.com), (435) 632-7841, with your name, contact information, and whether you’re familiar with the area. The CBC is the longest running citizen science effort in the world. Come be a part of the fun this year in southern Utah!
