Since there are over 50+ Christmas Bird Counts in Colorado, and some counts
don't get 10 observers on their counts, which they suppose to be (according
to National Audubon, every year), I am not sure about starting new
Christmas Bird Counts, that don't have a lot of birders, that live in the
circle (the new count this year, Broomfield, probably have lots of people,
since it is in northern Colorado). I know several of our local counts down
here, like Lake Isabel, Spanish Peaks, Rocky Ford, Pueblo, and Westcliffe
(which we've discontinued since there aren't any birders close by), don't
get enough of helpers (nowadays, they use to get more, back when they
started), since there's not a lot of birders in these areas. Please help
these rural counts that have few people helping usually, and not try to
start new counts in areas that don't have helpers.
