64th Annual Silver City Bird Count

Our individual bird numbers were again lower than average (-12%). However, we did have above average species numbers. Although it maybe felt like a sluggish CBC count with low activity, it was surprisingly better than 2024 (+10%) and the weather was strange but wonderful for birding. Thank you to all who participated!
