Great Backyard Bird Count

The Great Backyard Bird Count (GBBC) is a four-day global event, integrated with the eBird online checklist program. Participants submit observations from more than 120 countries documenting more than half the world’s species. Learn how to participate in the count and what birds you can see in Connecticut in winter in our webinar, then search for birds with us at the Roger Tory Peterson Estuary Center.
