• Great Backyard Bird Count

    From super70s@21:1/5 to All on Sun Feb 5 22:29:27 2023
    From the monthly mag my local power company sends out:

    Great Backyard Bird Count
    Feb. 17-20 - birdcount.org

    Join the global bird count this February by participating in the Great
    Backyard Bird Count, or GBBC! A collective initiative by the Cornell Lab
    of Ornithology, National Audubon Society and Birds Canada, the GBBC
    helps scientists better understand and track bird populations across not
    only the United States or North America but around the globe.

    The bird count runs from Friday, Feb. 17, to Monday, Feb. 20.
    Participants are encouraged to spend 15 minutes or more out in their
    favorite places in nature on one of these four days and take time to
    identify the birds they see, count them and submit a list of the birds
    they find to eBird, online at ebird.org.

    In 2021, over 6,400 bird species were identified during the GBBC with an unprecedented nearly 380,000 participants. Join the ranks to increase participation even more this year!

    For more information on the GBBC or to participate in the count this
    month, visit birdcount.org. For more information on bird data collected
    all over the world, visit ebird.org.
