Count Details

The Charlottesville CBC has been held since 1924. All levels of birders, from beginners to professional scientists, participate in the count.

The CCBC covers a circle 15 miles in diameter–centered in Ivy and split into eight sectors–that includes the City of Charlottesville and part of Albemarle County. Various teams of birdwatchers (typically about 20 teams with 60 participants total) explore set routes within the circle. If you are interested participating with one of these teams, contact the compiler listed. We are usually able to accommodate beginners and people new to the area!
