Early Winter Bird Monitoring

Find out who's sticking around for winter and see how they're getting along. This is a special week-day-morning bird monitoring with the Green Mountain Audubon Center Director, Kim Guertin.

Following our regular monitor route, we will search for birds in various habitats at the Audubon Center.  This is a great opportunity to build your experience using binoculars and listening to bird song. We will identify the birds we see or hear, and record counts of their population numbers. Binoculars and bird guides are available to borrow. Beginners are welcome!

The long-term data we gather contributes to the eBird database, which is available to a global community of educators, land managers, ornithologists, conservation biologists, and the public. Explore bird sightings from Audubon Vermont's Green Mountain Audubon Center. 

We typically finish our monitoring route by about 10 am, but you can leave earlier if necessary.
