It’s time for the Great Backyard Bird Count! CLC and the Alan Devoe Bird Club host a morning of learning new birding skills and contributing to community science.

Launched in 1998 by the Cornell Lab of Ornithology and National Audubon Society, the Great Backyard Bird Count was the first online community science project to collect data on wild birds and to display results in near real-time. Now, more than 160,000 people worldwide join the four-day count each February to create an annual snapshot of the distribution and abundance of birds.
