watchers coast to coast are invited to take part in the 13th annual
Great Backyard Bird Count, Friday, February 12, through Monday,
February 15, 2010. Participants in the free event will join
tens of thousands of volunteers of all levels of birding experience to
count birds in their own backyards, local parks or wildlife
refuges. More information at "The Great Backyard Bird Count" Each checklist submitted by these "citizen scientists" helps researchers at the Cornell Lab of Ornithology and the National Audubon Society learn more about how the birds are doing—and how to protect them. Last year, participants turned in more than 93,600 checklists online, creating the continent's largest instantaneous snapshot of bird populations ever recorded. Tallahassee made #3 NATIONALLY. If you need assistance in entering your bird count data into the data base contact Mary Huggins or Susan Teisciero, owners of Wild Birds Unlimited, 1505-2 Governor's Square Blvd., Tallahassee (850-576-0002 ). The beautiful photo below, taken by our own Glenda Simmons, was one
of the winners in the 2009 Great Backyard Bird Count photo
contest. More photos at The Great Backyard Bird Count Photo Gallery.
