Again this year, seeking to create a more complete picture of the great variety of birds which can be
seen in our area, North Country Bird Club will conduct a Spring Bird Census, a combined effort of
members and other interested birders to survey the bird life in our area during the spring season. The
Census will extend from March 19 (the Spring Equinox) through June 19. Please use the following
