2011 Christmas Bird Count Results

Minimize
The 2011 Christmas Bird Count results are now posted on this website.  To view go to "Publications", "Bird Count Results".  Several great birds were found in the area.  The Terre Haute CBC resulted in the first ever White-eyed Vireo for ANY Indiana CBC.  The Newport CBC found Marsh Wren and FOUR Whooping Cranes.  Now we look forward to warmer weather and the Vigo County May Day Count.  Thanks to all who participated in the area CBC's.

Bird Identification

Minimize
A great place to learn our local  bird species is at Dobbs Nature Center. The Wabash Valley Audubon Society visits the nature center at least once each month to help those interested find and learn what birds are being found in the park.  See the Activities schedule on this website to see which day we will be at the nature center. Usually, we visit the center on a Saturday between 10 am and noon.  Stay for as little or as long as you like.  Great fun for adults, kids and even the whole family.
