I’ve been so absorbed by peregrine season preparations that I forgot that this weekend, Friday February 18 through Tuesday February 21, is the Great Backyard Bird Count. Thanks to Anne Curtis for reminding me.
Here’s a descripton of the Great Backyard Bird Count (GBBC) that I wrote last year (check out the cute photo), and two links from Anne: Scott Shalaway’s article in the Post-Gazette and the main Great Backyard Bird Count website where you can enter your count.
The weather will be pretty good for the count. Even if it isn’t, you can participate by counting from your kitchen window.
