A change in schedule Cor McHenry County chapter of Illinois Audubon society is assembling members for their Christmas census planning meeting next Tuesday, Dec. 3, instead of on Dec. 5 as originally planned. Each member is being urged to attend this combination entertainment and business session to begin at 8 p.m. in the home of Paul and Ethel Wilcox, 226 McHenry avenue, Woodstock. Captains tor the census will he announced, teams selected and areas assigned. Darlene Fiske of Woodstock, census chairman, has prepared a big map providing an overall view of the entire territory in which birds will be counted on Dec. 28. She emphasizes it is essential that anyone who can help in the wiork volunteer, to do so. Those who tallied the birds last year will be asked to report again what ones they saw in their areas, in the hope that this information will be helpful to ethers who may have these places to observe this year. Any ideas for increasing the success of the census will be welcomed. But most of all, Mrs. Flske reiterates, it is important that she be given the names of the members who will work on the twenty- eighth. Any who cannot possibly attend the meeting Tuesday will help by telephoning her and thus reducing the number of dills she will have to make. Two movie reels have teen obtained by the chairman from the Illinois State Museum on "Wildfowl in Slow Motion" and MWaterfowl in Action". She is sure that these color-sound films will be enjoyed as a conclusion to an interesting evening. Audubon organizations all across the united Sates take the Christmas census amnmlly, each chapter selecting its own day within the count period specified by die National Audubon society. The counting and identifying of as many individual birds as can be found provides valuable information about the population trends of wintering birds, revealing their habitats and indicating whether their numbers are declining and what species are endangered* - • This will be the seventh year in which the McHenry county bird club has participated in the census work. Mrs. Fiske aid Mr. and Mrs. Clyde Titus of Crystal Lake are the 1968 committee. Incidentally the three are providing refreshments for the Dec. 3 meeting, with assistance from the Wilcoxes.
