From The Green Corner: Backyard Birds and More!

THE GREAT BACKYARD BIRD COUNT STARTS FEB 18:

The annual GBBC https://www.birdcount.org is an annual event where anyone of any age can observe and report bird sightings. Serving as “citizen scientists” in this way is an enormous help in documenting migration and flight patterns, increasing or decreasing populations.
