North American Migratory Bird Count
2008
Boyce Mayview Park and Wingfield Pines, Upper St.
Clair, Allegheny County, Pennsylvania
The results of this count are combined with other
counts in Allegheny County and Pennsylvania and are forwarded to the
National Audubon Society to be included in their international spring
migration count. This information is useful in helping determine bird
population changes, geographic shifts and changes of migratory patterns
of species.

Pittsburgh South Hills Bird Circle Christmas Bird Count, coming in
