CBC | Flagstaff Christmas Bird Count 2025

The Christmas Bird Count (CBC) is a long-standing citizen science tradition where volunteers across the Americas count birds during the holiday season, helping track population trends and inform conservation efforts. The Northern Arizona Audubon Society (NAAS) runs four local CBCs each year, welcoming birders of all skill levels.

Join us for the Flagstaff CBC on Sunday, December 14, at Mt Elden, Flagstaff. You can participate as a section leader, a team member, a feeder watcher at your home, or by birding in your neighborhood — no experience necessary!
