2025 Leavenworth Christmas Bird Count

Wenatchee River Institute is participating in the Leavenworth Christmas Bird Count this year!

The Christmas Bird Count (CBC) is a nationwide community science effort to count birds that has been happening for over 120 years. It is organized by the National Audubon Society, and local counts are compiled by regional Audubon chapters, community members, or organizations like WRI. Specific counts occur on one day in a 15-mile diameter circle around a town, and the Leavenworth count is happening on Tuesday, December 16th!

There are plenty of routes to cover and lots of space for volunteer leaders or beginning birders to join in. If you'd like to participate, please RSVP above and we will send out more information the week before. You do not have to participate for the entire time.

This is a great opportunity to both volunteer for this amazing community science project as well as learn from fellow community members. There is no cost to participate.
