Annual Christmas Bird Count 2025 (Part 2)

De Clark/Roy Hales/Cortes Currents -DOne of Cortes Island’s longstanding traditions is the Christmas Bird Count; for almost 25 years, local residents have volunteered in a coordinated week-long audit of the island’s bird life. For many years this effort has been coordinated in the field by longtime islander George Sirk, host of the 'Nature Boy' Radio Show on CKTZ. Roy Hales interviewed George about this year's bird count.
