This 5-year project recruits bird enthusiasts of all levels to contribute sightings and observations of all bird species during the breeding season and wintering season. There are several levels of involvement, from recording detailed behaviors in one of our priority blocks to identifying a species that occurs wherever you see it! We are now entering our final year of data collection. Breeding data collection ends Aug 2025, and wintering data collection will end Feb 2026.
