Scientists can get information about wild birds by using the global bird count.

As part of the global Great Backyard Bird Count this weekend, this bird was sighted in Quebec. Taking part in the Great Backyard Bird Count is still possible. Participants in the worldwide event, which began on Friday and runs through Monday, spend time in their favourite locations—a park or even their backyard—counting as many birds as they can and then reporting how many they have seen.

The first online participatory scientific initiative to gather data on wild birds was this event, which was started in 1998 by the National Audubon Society and Cornell Lab of Ornithology. In 2009, Birds Canada joined the initiative and everything went worldwide in 2013. "Anyone can participate, from beginners to experts," stated Birds Canada on its website. On one day of the event, you can count for as little as fifteen minutes, or you can count for as long as you desire on each day.It benefits the birds and is simple, enjoyable, and free.
Bird counters just need to observe birds for at least fifteen minutes once between February 14 and February 17. If you hear or see birds, try to identify them. Try the Merlin Bird ID app if you're unfamiliar to birds. Try the eBird Mobile app or submit your bird list on the eBird website if you have previously counted and would like to report the number of birds on The eBird website.
