Christmas Bird Counts
organized by Cayaya Birding

Español

CAYAYA BIRDING has reanimated Christmas Bird Counts in Guatemala. We have organized the first Christmas Bird Count in Tikal in 2006, which was the first in Guatemala after a hiatus of more than 30 years. Currently, Cayaya Birding organizes Christmas Bird Counts in Tikal and at Atitlan Volcano.

In 2007, a total of 35 observers participated at Atitlan Volcano, and 22 in Tikal. See the reports of both counts: Atitlan Volcano and Tikal.

To learn more about the history of Christmas Bird Counts in the Americas, visit National Audubon Society's website. More than 50,000 volunteers participate in more than 2,000 Christmas Bird Counts throughout the Americas. Objective of these counts is to monitor the status and distribution of bird populations in the Western Hemisphere. Counts are conducted in a period of 24 hours in a circle of 15 miles diameter. The National Audubon Society coordinates Christmas Bird Counts since 1900.
