December 21, Sunday. Iowa City Christmas Bird Count. Join us for a holiday tradition, the world’s
longest-running citizen science project! There are two ways to participate: you can join a small group
with an experienced leader assigned to a specific territory, which could contain local parks, trails, or
wildlife areas; or if you live in the count circle, you can count the birds in your own yard. To sign up,
contact Chris Edwards at credwards@aol.com or (319) 430-4732 as soon as possible. You can participate for part or all of the day. Groups do a varied mix of walking and driving, and some groups look for owls before dawn. We will have a mid-day compilation at a new
meeting location and time: room CD in the North Liberty Library at 1:00 p.m. The library is in the
same building as the North Liberty Community Center. Bring your own lunch.
