Hi all,
Thanks to Sue Braun for her leadership and thanks to Joe Gyekis for volunteering to help.
I recall my first CBC in the early 1990s, tagging along with Nick Bolgiano, and learning about finding birds, field id, note taking, distribution of species… you get the idea, Nick is a great mentor. Participating in the CBC is a fun way to learn from others and it is also one of the most enjoyable birding experiences of the year. Hope you can join the State College CBC!
Best,
Doug
