SUMMARY:Antone CBC
DESCRIPTION:The Antone CBC is now scheduled for January 4th\, 2025.\n\n\nThis count straddles the county line between southeast Wheeler County and southwest Grant County. In addition to its eponymous town site of Antone (nowadays population maybe 3)\, the count circle includes most of the Sheep Rock Unit of John Day Fossil Beds National Monument. The nearest towns with services are Mitchell (along US Hwy 26 in Wheeler County) and Dayville (in Grant County).\n\n\nThanks to National Park Service staff\, the morning meeting and late afternoon countdown will be in the Thomas Condon Visitor Center in the National Monument\, a couple miles north of Hwy 26 on State Hwy 19\, just across from Cant Ranch.\n\n\nPlease contact me *well in advance* if you’d like to join. Due to the remoteness of this count\, in rugged canyonlands with with no cell phone reception in large areas of the circle\, we need to know who’s planning to be there.\n\n\nSorry to say\, there’s no free lodging for this count\, nor are there any designated campgrounds in the circle (Clyde Holliday State Park would be the nearest accessible one but it closes Nov 30th\, and Barnhouse Spring Campground is usually snowed in). There are motels in Mitchell (Skyhook Motel) and Mt. Vernon (Blue Mountain Lodge). The Oregon Hotel in Mitchell was closed\, last time I went through there in June\, but there’s some sort of hostel on the west side of town which might still be an option.\n\n\n If you are interested in joining\, contact Joel Geier ASAP.  (541) 745-5821 or clearwaterATpeak.org

SUMMARY:Prineville CBC
DESCRIPTION:Prineville CBC – Tuesday\, December 31st \nThis count circle has extensive private land holdings with limited access.  Consequently\, it’s not the kind of count that requires a huge number of volunteers.  However\,  I generally scramble to find a group of hikers that is willing to hike/snowshoe through a closed forest section near Brennan Palisades.  Kim Kathol has been a perennial hiker\, but he could use help covering this area.  If you are up for a winter hike\, please let me know.  This section has historically had some of the rarest and most uncommon species of the entire count circle — think Dusky Grouse\, Canada Jay\, Black-backed Woodpecker\, Mountain Quail\, etc.  The rest of the circle offers a mix of driving and short walks. \nContact: Mark Gonzalez\, towhee@bendbroadband.com\, 541-410-2659

SUMMARY:Sheldon CBC
DESCRIPTION:Sheldon (Friday\, Dec 20th)\n\nSheldon National Wildlife Refuge is the sister refuge to Hart Mountain\, just across the state line in northern Nevada. Most of the circle is sagebrush\, canyons\, and rimrock\, with no trees in vast areas of the circle. Wintering birds tend to concentrate in the Virgin Valley wetlands which usually have some areas of unfrozen water\, due to inflows from geothermal springs. Lodging in the refuge bunkhouse is available for count volunteers. Space in the bunkhouse is limited so please contact the compiler well in advance\, if you are interested to join this count.\n\nNote that this CBC is almost full.  If you are interested in joining\, contact Joel Geier ASAP.  (541) 745-5821 or clearwaterATpeak.org

DESCRIPTION:Hart Mountain (Wednesday\, Dec 18th)\n\nCANCELLED DUE TO EARLIER FIRES.\n\nThis count on Hart Mountain National Antelope Refuge and neighboring parts of the Warner Valley Wetlands near Plush. This year’s count has a high probability of being canceled due to access restrictions affecting most of the circle\, in the aftermath of the 2024 Warner Peak Fire.

SUMMARY:Bend CBC
DESCRIPTION:Bend CBC\, Saturday\, December 14th \nThe 57th Bend Christmas Bird Count will be held on the first Saturday of the count period\, December 14th.  Many of the sector leaders have put together their teams for the count but I do imagine there will be openings available for those who want to participate all day.  Feeder watchers are always welcomed\, too.  If you would like to participate\, please drop me a line at tc@empnet.com and let me know.  Some routes involve a lot of walking\, others are mainly driving.  Let me know your preference and your experience level.  We will try to accommodate as many as possible.  Remember this is a winter activity and requires dressing appropriately for the weather.  Every year someone shows up without a warm coat\, gloves or shoes that aren’t made for walking on forest trails. Meet at Pioneer Park at 7 am. \nContact: Tom Crabtree\, tc@empnet.com.
