Project FeederWatch

Cornell University’s Lab of Ornithology and Bird Studies Canada have opened registration for the 2007-2008 season of Project FeederWatch.

Project FeederWatch is a winter-long survey of birds that visit feeders at backyards, nature centers, community areas, and other locales in North America. FeederWatchers periodically count the highest numbers of each species they see at their feeders from November through early April. FeederWatch helps scientists track broadscale movements of winter bird populations and long-term trends in bird distribution and abundance.
What is Project FeederWatch

Next year’s seasons begins November 10. They begin shipping kits in September. There’s a $15 registration fee.
