The 13th Annual
Great Backyard Bird Count
February 12-15, 2010
From February 12th - 15th, join bird watchers from coast to coast for the 13th Annual Great Backyard Bird Count (GBBC). The GBBC is open to bird watchers of all ages and skill levels. Participation is free and no registration is required.
Participants can easily report what they see online at www.birdcount.org and get an instantaneous snapshot of their record. The website also highlights events going on in local communities, information on the GBBC photo contest, and real-time data from across the U.S. and Canada!
Last year, participants turned in more than 93,600 checklists online, creating the continent's largest instantaneous snapshot of bird populations ever recorded. Join our training session listed below and be a part of this nationwide effort to count birds in your yard or neighborhood.
Call Ted at (203) 869-5272 ext. 230 to learn more about participating.
