Summer Bird Count

Help collect important information about the location of breeding birds for one day in mid-June

Held on one day in mid-June, the scope of the Summer Bird Count is similar to the Christmas Bird Count in its count circle extent. Not only does it provide a good excuse to spend a day birding in warm weather, but it is also a very important way for researchers to learn important information about the locations of breeding birds.

The 50th Annual Summer Bird Count will take place on Saturday & Sunday, June 7th & 8th 2025.

For more information about this data or to join a counting team for the next Summer Bird Count, please contact Ryan MacLean at 203-930-1353 or email.
