Get ready to help birds on October 11 by participating in Global Big Day. Wherever you are, spend some time looking at birds, then report all your sightings to eBird. This data then provides a snapshot of what birds are where each year at the same time, helping scientists collect important data for bird distribution and abundance, which helps influence decisions on bird conservation and helps keep species data current. So what are you waiting for? Make a difference on October 11 and let the world know what birds you are seeing and where. For more info check out eBird.
