With Carl Woodward, Trustee,
Greenwood Gardens
The Christmas Bird Count
(CBC) is hosted annually by the National Audubon Society in which volunteer
birdwatchers throughout the northern Western Hemisphere take a census of wild
bird sightings. The CBC is the longest-running citizen science survey in
the world and Greenwood is proud to host it for the third year in a row. Led by
Greenwood Trustee and avid birdwatcher, Carl Woodward, we will explore the
grounds seeking out the birds that winter here and report our findings as part
of the Watchung Ridge Count and the annual report of North American bird
sightings. Meet in the Cottage Parking Lot shortly before 12:00 p.m.
Basic bird identification knowledge is helpful but not necessary. Cameras
welcome. Please prepare for cold weather by dressing warmly, especially with
sturdy warm footwear and good gloves. Bring binoculars and bird
guides. Rain or shine and group focused.
