Bird Counts
NHAS sponsors Spring and Christmas bird counts each year in a count circle centered in the area of Jordan Lake in Chatham County (count circle map). We encourage participants of all stripes—beginners and experts, young and old. If you have never counted before, we will team you up with more experienced people.
In addition to the Jordan Lake Spring and Christmas bird counts, NHAS promotes the Mini Breeding Bird Surveys in Orange, Durham, and Chatham Counties. There are also many other counts in North and South Carolina. Follow these links for more information:
