Early Winter PopulationTrends in Long Island Sound Birds
Connecticut Christmas Bird Counts, 1970-2021
Presenter: Steve Broker
Connecticut Christmas Bird Count data for the Long Island Sound coastline were reviewed for the 52-year period 1970-71 through 2021-22. The eight coastal counts range from Greenwich-Stamford in the west to Napatree, RI/NY/CT in the east. Six of these eight coastal counts have been conducted each year since 1970, some of them first held many years earlier than 1970. Two coastal counts have been added to our LIS shoreline in more recent years. The early winter populations of Long Island Sound birds have seen significant increases for some bird species and major declines for others, as indicated in a series of graphs.
