Great Backyard Bird Count
Give the Great Backyard Bird Count an eBird Bump!
It's a natural fit: eBirders and the Great Backyard Bird Count. We know you're committed to watching birds and recording your sightings in eBird, so we'd like to invite you to share your sightings in the 12th annual Great Backyard Bird Count, February 13-16.
Enter your counts in eBird as usual--your personal long-term records are valuable to scientists. But if you'd like your sightings to appear in the online maps and tallies for town, state, and national sightings in this year's Great Backyard Bird Count, make sure to enter your counts at www.birdcount.org as well. (Record the highest number of each species you see at any one time during your count period.)
Participants tallied 635 species in the 2008 Great Backyard Bird Count and you can help boost reports from your area by entering your checklists on the GBBC site. You can keep watch on reports coming in via the website's interactive maps, take the GBBC survey, and upload images for the photo contest. Just by participating in the GBBC you値l be entered into a drawing for great prizes donated by the National Audubon Society, Cornell Lab of Ornithology, Wild Birds Unlimited, and Droll Yankees.
Be a part of our four-day continentwide effort to gather as many observations as possible for this late-winter snapshot of our continent's birds!
