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 2008, a total of 48 observers participated at Atitlan Volcano, and 42 in Tikal. Among the observers were several birdwatching novices, showing that Christmas Bird Counts help the Guatemalan birding community to grow. See the reports of both counts: Atitlan Volcano and Tikal, and the coverage of Christmas Bird Counts in the Guatemalan press.

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.
