Have you been watching the white-throated sparrows scratching around in your yard this winter? What other birds are you seeing in the yard? Are you participating in the Great Backyard Bird Count this weekend? You should! All it takes is 15 minutes. You can watch from a window or porch, get out in your yard, or go for a walk in a local park. Identify birds, count them, and submit your list through your Merlin Bird app, eBird Mobile app, or the eBird website. Your participation in this community science event will help scientists better understand and protect birds around the world. You can do it! Go to birdcount.org for details and how to participate.
