Nearly 200 species have been recorded by 25 or more "working teams" in the 24 hour “Count Day” on assigned routes lead by experienced birders. Lots of new and rare birds have been discovered over the past several years in Sonoma Valley for the first time. At the dinner a large screen with computer entry is displayed in real time for all to critique. This is unique to Sonoma Valley’s CBC. The data becomes part of a national census that rolls up to National Audubon. We have a lot of fun and appreciate the great “citizen science” effort that it takes annually. From dawn to dusk!
