The Great Backyard Bird Count

Join the Brooklyn Bird Club, in partnership with Prospect Park Alliance, for The Great Backyard Bird Count (GBBC), a free, fun  event that engages bird watchers of all ages nationwide and contributes to a greater cause: counting birds in Prospect Park and creating a real-time snapshot of bird populations. Sightings recorded during the walk will be submitted to the GBBC website and used by the Cornell Lab of Ornithology to learn how birds are doing and how we can protect them and their environment.

Dress warmly and be prepared for a chilly walk. In case of inclement weather, check the Brooklyn Bird Club Facebook page, the Kingsboider’s Prospect Sightings blog or the Brooklyn Bird Club website trips page for updates.

No registration or equipment necessary.
