Make 15 minutes matter for birds!
Join the worldwide celebration of the 28th annual Great Backyard Bird Count (GBBC) from Friday, February 14, through Monday, February 17, 2025.

Bird and nature lovers everywhere, of all skill levels and all abilities, unite in the effort to tally as many global bird species as possible over these four days. Participating is easy, fun to do alone or with others, and can be done anywhere. Count birds from your backyard, local park, or wherever you spot them—it's that simple! Find a group count near you with our community map, or get out and count on your own or with friends. Whether you're a seasoned birder or just getting started, your observations make a difference.

Combined with other bird counts, GBBC results help create a clearer picture of how birds are faring across the globe—whether individual species are declining, increasing, or holding steady in the face of habitat loss, climate change, and other threats. Every bird you count contributes to vital conservation research!
