Join in on the annual Audubon Backyard Bird Count Feb. 16 – 19

January 26, 2024

Have 15 minutes to spare for the birds? Join Audubon for the 26th annual Great Backyard Bird Count (GBBC), taking place February 16 – 19, 2024.

Bird and nature lovers everywhere, of all skill levels and all abilities, unite in the effort to tally as many of the world’s bird species as possible over these four days. Combined with other bird counts, GBBC results help create a clearer picture of how birds are faring—whether individual species are declining, increasing, or holding steady in the face of habitat loss, climate change, and other threats.
