16th annual Great Backyard Bird Count, Feb. 15-18

For the first time, anyone anywhere in the world with Internet access can participate in the 16th annual Great Backyard Bird Count, Feb. 15-18. Participants simply watch birds at any location for at least 15 minutes, tally the numbers of each species they see, and report their tallies online.

Anyone visiting the Great Backyard Bird Count website will be able to see bird observations being tallied from around the world as well as being able to contribute their own tallies. The Great Backyard Bird Count is open to anyone of any skill level and welcomes bird observations from any location, including backyards, gardens, urban landscapes, national parks and wetlands. The four-day count typically receives sightings from tens of thousands of people reporting more than 600 bird species in the United States and Canada alone.
