"The Great Backyard Bird Count"

Come join Charlie and I in the “The Great Backyard Bird Count” which we did last year. Only this year we are going to invite our friends and families to join us.

As Charlie and I have decided to host a contest and see who finds the most Birds in there backyard and the winner will win a Gift Card and some fun coloring pages. So be watching as Charlie and I will also be coloring the bird coloring pages I found. If you would like some coloring sheets to use as your looking for Birds you can find the coloring pages here.

Age Range: All (All grades; children with parental supervision)

It’s not too early to mark your calendars and get ready to participate in “The Great Backyard Bird Count” scheduled for February 17-20, 2017.

This annual event, sponsored by the Cornell University Lab of Ornithology and the Audubon Society, is your opportunity to join a citizen-science project (for kids, teens, and adults) that helps scientists collect data and investigate far-reaching questions about bird populations.

It only takes as little as 15 minutes on one day. You simply count the birds you see in your backyard and turn in the results. It’s free, fun, and easy – and it helps the scientists to help the birds.

Thank you,

Glenda, Charlie and David Cates
