125 Years of Audubon's Christmas Bird Count with Cooper Farr

This webinar was recorded as part of our Your Data Is for the Birds webinar series on community science. Beginning in 1900, Audubon’s Christmas Bird Count (CBC) is the nation’s longest-running community science bird project. This hemispheric initiative brings together thousands of volunteers each December and January to count birds, providing crucial data for scientific research and conservation efforts. Over its 125-year history, the CBC has been instrumental in advancing our understanding of bird population trends. This project has tracked conservation success stories, identified alarming population declines, and contributed to our understanding of how birds are impacted by climate change. In this presentation, we explore the significance of this ongoing community science effort and discuss how individuals can participate in this vital work that helps protect bird species for future generations. Cooper Farr is the Community Science Manager for the National Audubon Society, where she supports, promotes, and innovates Audubon’s current and future Community Science programs, including Audubon’s Christmas Bird Count, Climate Watch, and the Great Backyard Bird Count. Cooper’s background is in avian ecology and applied conservation science, and she has over ten years of experience in developing and implementing community science programs.
