Find a New York Count Circle

In the drop-down list above, an asterisk preceding a circle code indicates information is available on this page; click the code/name to find it below. Conversely, no asterisk indicates we don't have any 2008/2009 information about the circle's count yet.

Note:  The annual Christmas Bird Count is a project of the National Audubon Society.  NYSOA presents the schedule here to assist CBC volunteers and coordinators in planning.
