KAREN, we still need to hear from you

Be sure to share your thoughts before our midnight deadline.
                                                               
WHO WOULD YOU CHOOSE?
 
 
KAREN, time time is running out to help select our next calendar cover bird!

It's down to four beloved species: Tree Swallows, the Common Raven, the Pileated Woodpecker, and the Shining Sunbeam. Hundreds of bird lovers have already weighed in, but we don't want to go to print without hearing from you.
BEFORE MIDNIGHT:
Which bird should be on our next calendar cover?
Tree Swallows
Pileated Woodpecker
Common Raven
Shining Sunbeam
Our calendar does more than mark the days—it's a year-long celebration of the birds and habitats that caring friends like you help us protect. Every page is a reminder of what we're fighting for and why this work matters.

This poll closes at midnight tonight, so be sure to share your thoughts right away by clicking one of the buttons above.

Sincerely,

National Audubon Society

The Great Backyard Bird Count Ends Tomorrow!

The Great Backyard Bird Count (GBBC) ends soon, but you still have today and tomorrow to join this global bird count! Get involved by spending as little as 15 minutes tallying birds in your community and then submit your lists online. The data collected by volunteers powers conservation initiatives and helps us better understand how climate change will impact the birds we all love.
The GBBC is an inter-organizational effort between Audubon, Cornell Lab of Ornithology, and Birds Canada. Anyone can take part in the GBBC, from beginning bird watchers to experts, and you can participate from your backyard, a public park, or anywhere in the world.

Right now, bird and nature lovers of all skill levels and abilities are tallying as many of the world's bird species as possible. Keep reading to learn how to participate in this year's count.
