Christmas Bird Count

The ONC 2025 Christmas Bird Count will take place December 14, 2025. Team Leads will report results at a pot luck dinner, to be held at St. Pauls Centre Banquet Hall (6-9pm). This citizen science initiative, organized by Birds Canada in partnership with the National Audubon Society, encourages people to count birds in their area to gather data for bird conservation. Anyone can participate, regardless of experience level, by joining a count circle near them. Please contact Chase Moser if you’d like to join one of our teams, or wish to count at your feeder.

This volunteer driven monitoring program has been running since 1900, adding to our understanding of how wild birds are doing across the country. EVERYONE is welcome and encouraged to participate!
