Hello Ontbirders, It is often difficult to obtain Christmas count dates and plan your holidays. The Audubon site is slow to have the data added, the count date page is hard to find, and many compilers don't bother posting their data there. I can't find the data on the BSC site but they may also post some. We would like to post all of the Ontario count dates and contact people on the OFO web site this year. If you are a compiler, please send me your count date. If you would like your email details posted as well, please indicate that too. Otherwise we will just post the date and contact person. I have data for five counts so far, so these folks don't have to respond:
Algonquin - 2 January 2010 - Ron Tozer Dunrobin-Breckenridge - 2 January 2010 - Bruce Di Labio Halton-Peel Counties circle (South Peel Naturalists' Club) - 19 December 2009 - Mark Cranford, [email protected], 905-279-9576 Hamilton - 26 December 2009 Ingersoll - 28 December 2009 - Ross Snider Ottawa - 20 December 2009 - Eve Ticknor Toronto - 20 December 2009 Woodstock - 19 December 2009 - Jeff Skevington, [email protected], 613-832-1970 Please send your data directly to me ([email protected]). I will compile the list and forward it to Doug Woods. He will put it up on the web site. It would be great to get as many of these dates as possible this weekend so please let me know right away if you have settled on a date. Once you know your dates for 2010/11 please let me know that as well. There is no reason to wait until one or two months before the count to post this information.
