Christmas Bird Count – December 19

The 2025 Eastern Alameda County Christmas bird count will be held on Friday, December 19, 2025.

The Christmas Bird Count is an annual nationwide volunteer-based bird survey effort coordinated by the Audubon Society to promote bird conservation and assess long-term trends in winter bird populations.
In its 17th year, the annual Eastern Alameda County bird count was initiated in 2009. The 15 mile radius count circle is in the vicinity of the towns of Sunol, Pleasanton and Livermore, and includes five East Bay Regional Parks, significant San Francisco Public Utilities Commission watershed lands, and East Bay birding hotspots such as lower Mines Road, Sunol Wilderness, and Sycamore Grove Park.

Birders and volunteers with any level of experience can participate in the Christmas Bird Count. If you’re interested in participating in this years count Please send an email to eac.cbc@gmail.com
