Saturday: Annual ‘Great Backyard Bird Count’ (GBBC) at Greenwich Audubon

Join Audubon Greenwich birding experts for one of these wonderful birding programs in Greenwich, Sat., Feb. 15 from 1:00-2:00p.m. at Audubon Greenwich.

The GBBC is a unique, citizen-led scientific bird count happening in yards and neighborhood across the nation each year.

The Great Backyard Bird Count (GBBC) results are reported online to the Laboratory of Ornithology at Cornell University and will aid ornithological researchers who are learning where birds spend their winter and how their home ranges change overtime.

Join Audubon senior naturalist Ted Gilman when he checks who is coming to the sanctuary’s bird feeders. Then, take a short walk on the trails to identify and count birds in the field. Afterwards, return to the Center to sip hot chocolate and report the GBBC bird sightings online to Cornell Univ. All ages welcome. RSVP required to Ted 203-869-5272 x230. Bring binoculars or borrow a pair from at Greenwich Audubon.
