Birding enthusiasts of all experience levels are invited to participate in a monthly bird survey at Cibolo Nature Center. Volunteers will help identify and count bird species across diverse habitats, including riparian, woodland, prairie, and marsh areas. Each habitat’s tally will be recorded in eBird, a database managed by the Cornell Lab of Ornithology.

The survey takes place on the first Monday of each month, beginning at 8 am, except for June through September, when the start time is 7:30 am. Volunteers will meet at the Cibolo Nature Center Pavilion before heading out on a 2 to 2.5-mile walking route across flat terrain with some steps.

Participants should bring binoculars, wear long pants and sturdy shoes, and bring water, a hat, and sun protection. This survey is co-sponsored by Bexar Audubon Society and Cibolo Center for Conservation and qualifies for Alamo and Hill Country Master Naturalist volunteer hours.
