Brevard County Christmas Bird Counts

Jim Eager, Space Coast Audubon Society, Vice President

Below is a list of the 3 Christmas Bird Counts conducted in Brevard County. Come join us for some great birding and camaraderie. The only requirements are enthusiasm and a pair of binoculars. Dress appropriately for the weather and bring snacks and drinks. If you are going to participate in the Merritt Island count bring a lunch especially if your team will be birding on the refuge and in the restricted area (KSC) as there are no eating places available.
