About
The Christmas Bird Count (CBC) was founded in 1900 as a way to promote conservation by counting, rather than hunting, birds on Christmas Day. The CBC uses a specific method to count birds. Each count takes place on a single day between December 14 to January 5 in an established 15-mile diameter circle.
The Bell Museum is located in the Saint Paul (North) Count circle. Volunteers will be out counting birds on designated routes in our circle on Saturday, December 14. We will support the CBC by reporting the birds we observe at our feeders on count day.
Visit the Touch and See Lab all day to connect with volunteers and Master Naturalists who will be identifying and counting the birds that visit our feeders.
This is an in-person event at the Bell Museum and is included in the cost of regular admission.
The Bell Museum is fully committed to creating an inclusive environment. We are proud to offer multiple services or resources detailed at this link. For additional information or to request an accommodation, please contact the accessibility office at 612-625-4511 or [email protected].
