February is Great Backyard Bird Count Month

February is Great Backyard Bird Count month! Get a friend to join in the GBBC fun from February 17-20—all you have to do to participate is enter sightings in eBird!

While recuperating from an injury, Susan has become a bit of an avid birder over the past year. She invites you to consider participating in the Great Backyard Bird Count through Cornell University.

There are several APPS available for your phone, lots of details and further information available at: http://gbbc.birdcount.org/

 

 

“Launched in 1998 by the Cornell Lab of Ornithology and National Audubon Society, the Great Backyard Bird Count was the first online citizen-science project to collect data on wild birds and to display results in near real-time.

Now, more than 160,000 people of all ages and walks of life worldwide join the four-day count each February to create an annual snapshot of the distribution and abundance of birds.

We invite you to participate! For at least 15 minutes on one or more days of the count, February 17-20, 2017, simply tally the numbers and kinds of birds you see. You can count from any location, anywhere in the world, for as long as you wish!

If you’re new to the count, or have not participated since before the 2013 merger with eBird, you must create a free online account to enter your checklists. If you already have an account, just use the same login name and password. If you have already participated in another Cornell Lab citizen-science project, you can use your existing login information, too.
