Here is your great big reminder that the Great Backyard Bird Count starts this Friday, February 17, 2012! I am anxious to count birds with my family and to compare our results with last year. I am wondering if our unusual winter weather will effect our numbers and species.
Here are some links:
What is the GBBC?

Thank you so much for the reminder! I linked a post on my blog to your post/website. I appreciate so much all your hard work to help us in our study of nature. 🙂 Thank you!
I can’t wait to find out what you discover. I think I will wait do do this with my son; getting him to stay still to count would be hard right now 🙂
Whoops! We’re geared up to start counting tomorrow morning!
We’ve never done the BBC but we did do a unit study on birds one year. It was so much fun to see how many species we could identify in our urban neighborhood!
