[All] Back Yard Bird Count: Please participate from today til Feb 21

[Louisette Lanteigne]

 The Great Backyard Bird Count (GBBC) is an annual four-day event that 
engages birdwatchers of all ages across North America. Anyone can 
participate, from beginners to experts. Count for as little as 15 
minutes on a single day, or for as long as you like each day of the 
event. It’s free, fun, and easy – and it helps the birds! 

   The 
count takes place this weekend – Friday, February 18, through Monday, 
February 21. And no, it is not too late to participate. Because advance 
sign-up is not required, it is as simple as counting birds at a location
 near you, tallying the highest number of birds of each species seen 
together at once, and filling out an online checklist on the GBBC website here: http://www.birdsource.org/gbbc/

As the weekend progresses, feel free to visit the website regularly to check out results and share photographs, and become a GBBC fan on Facebook. It’s going to be a great weekend for birders in Canada and the United States!
