Bird Count
Susan Edwards Richmond, illustrated by Stephanie Fizer Coleman
A girl and her mother take part in the annual Christmas Bird Count with a team of community scientists. Asked to record the tally, the girl identifies and counts birds along their route using her eyes and ears. The group follows rules intended to avoid duplicate counts, and the teams' results are later combined. The book follows bird observation, careful counting, and collective fieldwork.
