Record snow cover

We are able to access extensive weather information from continental datasets and match it to your counts, so you don’t have to record weather information such as temperature, rainfall or wind. But snow depth is highly variable from one site to the next and can be important for interpreting patterns of feeder use. Please record the average depth of snow at your count site over the two-day count. If your count site contained snow drifts of various depths, or if you had snow on one of your count days but not the other, average the depth of snow cover over the two-day count.
