The Great Backyard Bird Count

Friday – Monday, February 18-21, 2022 • All Over the World

With a friend or one your own, watching one bird or counting hundreds, join a worldwide community-science and conservation project. All you have to do is observe for 15 minutes and submit your observation(s). Here are few more details from https://www.birdcount.org/participate/ :

Step 1 – Decide where you will watch birds.

Step 2 – Watch birds for 15 minutes or more, at least once over the four days, February 18-21, 2022.

Step 3 – Count all the birds you see or hear within your planned time/location and use the best tool for sharing your bird sightings:

• • • • If you are a beginning bird admirer and new to the count, try using the Merlin Bird ID app.
      • If you have participated in the count before, try eBird Mobile app or enter your bird list on the eBird website (desktop/laptop).
