I am organizing an Audubon Christmas Bird Count Circle with the AMC. This is a twenty four hour event where teams go into a prescribed circle and take a bird census. This is an even that has been on going through out the US for about 100 years. The information is used to track migratory patterns, population distributions and fluctuations. More information is forthcoming, however, http://www.audubon.org/bird/cbc/index.html for the curious.
I am in the process of working with the AMC and completeing the New CBC Circle application. Can you believe there is no circle in Whites. I hope to set the center on Mt Willard 44 deg 12.23'N, 71deg 24.79' W. There is 7.5 mi radius. This location helps to center the activity at the highland center to compile the data, and to include the old growth of Nancy Brook, Part of the Pemi and onto Mt Washington. This should be a good year as some northern birds are expected to interupt into New England.
I could use help in compiling a list of different habitat in this area with dominant tree/plant species. Although I have spent a lot of time in this area assume I know nothing so no stone is left unturned. Thanks for any input.
