CHRISTMAS BIRD COUNTS. Count 
     
     dates have been set for Sat., 
     
     Dec. 19th for the P.E.I. Nat- 
     
     ional Park Count, and Mon., 
     
     Dec. 28th for the Hillsborough 
     
     Count. Participation fee is 
     
     $2.00 per person for each 
     
     count. (The fee helps to off- 
     
     set costs of publishing count 
     
     reports in American Birds, the 
     
     official bird count journal 
     
     printed in New York.) As in 
     
     other years we will also try 
     
     to record any mammals or their 
     
     sign observed. At the end of 
     
     each count day everyone is 
     
     invited to share in a potluck 
     
     supper to swap adventures, 
     
     compile totals and, of course, 
     
     to eat! The supper following 
     
     the Hillsborough Count will be 
     
     at Rosemary Curley‘s home in 
     
     waterside. A site for the Dec. 
     
     19th potluck supper is still 
     
     needed so if you could loan 
     
     your home for the occasion, 
     
     even if you can't come along 
     
     on the count, please let the 
     
     compiler know. Everyone is 
     
     welcome to participate, regard- 
     
     less of whether you are an
