The Santa Barbara Audubon Society presents, with the support of the City of Goleta, a free educational event for the children in our community: the 11th Annual Winter Bird Count for Kids. It is held at Lake Los Carneros Park, located at 304 N. Los Carneros Road in Goleta, at the Stow House Parking Lot.This 3-hour event offers children age 8-14 the opportunity to learn from expert birders and environmental scientists about the various birds of our region.The first 75 participants will receive a free t-shirt, featuring artwork by Lucy London.
Children will first learn how to use binoculars, which will be available for each participant to use at the event. A list of target bird species will be provided and educators will present information about how to identify each one. Bird calls will be played and large photos will be shared so that kids will learn what to look and listen for. Then, from 9:30 AM - 11:00 AM, children will explore Lake Los Carneros with experienced team leaders. There will be a Bird Count compilation, where the tallies of bird species will be collected and the final numbers counted.
