Learn how to take part in the Aussie backyard Bird Count.

Hosted by Bird Life Australia, this webinar will cover: 

  • bird week
  • how to complete a count
  • how your count is helping
  • FAQ's and questions time. 

Just spend 20 minutes in your favourite outdoor space and count the birds you see. You can submit your counts using the Aussie Backyard Bird Count app or via the website, and there’s a handy bird finder tool to help you ID any birds you’re unsure of.

Not only will you be helping science, participants report feeling happier, more relaxed, and closer to nature after completing a count – and there’s the chance to win some incredible prizes.

The app is available for iPhones and Android smartphones. Go to Google Play or iTunes to download the app for free. If you have the Aussie Bird Count app from previous years don’t delete it, it should update automatically with the newest version. In between event dates, the app operates as a field-guide/bird finder.
