Listen "Bird Count History"
Episode Synopsis
I was recently reading the March - April 2025 issue of "The Science Teacher", a publication of the National Science Teaching Association. In this issue, I read the section, "Right to the Source," written by Jessica Fries-Gaither She wrote an article entitled, "'The 1900 Christmas Bird Census: Introducing a New Annual Tradition and Citizen Science Project. This "historical" podcast provides an entry point for students in the Christmas Bird Count's history and current applications in ornithology. Students use data from the Count's history to help construct their scientific understanding.
