The Carpinteria Christmas Bird Count

Sunrise from Romero Saddle

This year’s Carpinteria Christmas Bird Count (CBC) will take place Saturday, December 17, 2022. This year we’re strongly encouraging participants to submit their sightings via eBird and to use the online effort form we’ve set up. This helps a lot with the compilation process. See the following page for detailed instructions on how to participate:

Carpinteria CBC 2022 Instructions

Thanks everyone! I’m looking forward to a great count!

— John Callender, Carpinteria CBC compiler, [email protected]
