There are tips of how and what to feed birds and step to ready themselves for the big event. Site visitors may see and hear birds and look at last year's trend. There is a comparative between last and this year's bird count as each year establishes a picture of North America bird's long term population trends. The more information gathered the better to ensure birds will remain and take measures of protection where needed. Birdsource provides directions and other information.
Participation is free and no registration is necessary.
All the information needed is at the web site. Join into The 4th Annual Great Backyard Bird Count and you will have days to remember, a positive entry in your journal and will observe the bird population status of your home town and of North America. There is no fee or registration requirement to participate in the GBBC, and people without Internet access might be able to report counts at their local library. Many Wild Birds Unlimited locations also accept reports. All rights reserved.
