How can you help?

Lend your birding skills to bird monitoring, science, and conservation. Adopt a route for our annual spring count (April 15 - May 15), or choose your own area to adopt for the Park Monitoring Program. Then, spend a morning (of your choosing) counting birds on your area, and enter your data on-line. You'll see results, including distribution maps for most species observed, on this website. See the Participation Overview for more info.
