Over a hundred years ago, a group of conservationists opted for counting birds on Christmas rather than shooting them. Today, volunteers continue that count, gathering valuable bird data worldwide. Guest host Allison McNair talks with Mark Suomala, Independent Bird & Nature Tour Guide, www.marksbirdtours.com and Becky Suomala, Natural History Services Coordinator, Audubon Society of NH www.nhaudubon.org. For more information about the count, see the national Audubon site www.audubon.org/bird/cbc/index.html.
