Hi everyone,
Registration is now open for the 2026 COBC on Saturday, September 5th. You
can visit *cobirds.org/cobc <http://cobirds.org/cobc>* to learn more and
register your team.
We have added a new category this year called the Big Sit. For this
category, you simply choose a location—whether it is your backyard or the
shores of John Martin Reservoir—and count as many species as possible.
If you have not participated in this event before, we encourage you to
join. To participate, review the four competition options, select the one
that works best for you, and register through Pledgeit. Only one person
from each competitive team needs to pay the registration fee; teammates can
select their team when registering without paying additional fees.
There is also a "Bird Your Own Way" option, which is completely free,
non-competitive, and customizable to how you would like to take part.
Last year we had 38 teams birding in 22 counties and we raised $20,000 for
CFO programs and conservation. We also generated over 400 eBird checklists,
a valuable documentation of Colorado's birdlife.
Good birding,
Peter Burke
CFO Board of Directors
