[SBB] Sign up: Oakland CBC Dec 17, San Francisco CBC Dec 28

[Dave Quady <[[email protected]]>]

Hello, Bay Area Birders (with apologies for cross-posting):

Golden Gate Audubon Society sponsors two Christmas Bird Counts:

	Oakland -- Sunday, December 17
	San Francisco -- Thursday, December 28

Invitations were mailed on Tuesday to everyone who participated in  
either count in recent years (except to those who already signed up  
online for one of the counts--thanks to all who did so!).  If you  
participated recently but haven't received your invitation yet it  
should arrive any day now.

This note invites new participants to join the counts.  You'll have a  
chance to sample the bird life in an area that fits your interests and  
abilities, under the leadership of an experienced birder.  At the end  
of the day you can attend the "count dinner," to learn what birds  
others have found, and where.  A rarity or two usually turns up;  
learning of them on the day of discovery can help you see them, too.

It's easiest for you, and for the compilers, if you sign up online.  Go  
to
http://www.goldengateaudubon.org/html/birdresources/ 
christmasbirdcount.htm
and follow the links to sign up for either count, and to download  
sign-up forms for the count dinners.  Early sign-ups pay a reduced  
price for dinner.

However, if you prefer, you can call Golden Gate Audubon Society at  
510-843-2222 to request sign-up forms and/or dinner reservation forms  
for either count.  Act soon -- sign-up deadlines are November 26 for  
the Oakland CBC and December 7 for the San Francisco CBC.

For further information, contact one of the compilers:
