Project FeederWatch
December 9 @ 8:00 am - December 14 @ 5:00 pm
Count the birds you love!
Join us this season for Project FeederWatch, where more than 30,000 people across North America take part in a winter survey that helps to measure changes in the winter ranges and abundances of bird species over time and helps us to ensure the health of our birds and their habitat. And it’s lots of fun!
Project FeederWatch is a joint research and education project of Birds Canada and the Cornell Lab of Ornithology that depends on volunteers like you to help us all learn more about bird populations.
Your observations of birds out your window can really help the conservation of Canada’s birds. Sign up for the season, starting November 1 through April 30.
I love to participate in FeederWatch because it makes me feel a strong connection the natural environment around me and because I want to play my little part in helping monitor birds over time.
It’s easy! All you need to do is:
1. Join Project FeederWatch with a donation of any amount and we’ll send you materials to help you identify and record the birds you see in your area.
2. Count your neighborhood birds periodically throughout the season (November 1 – April 30).
3. Submit your counts online at feederwatch.org or using the new Project FeederWatch mobile app.
To submit your public events for consideration, email Noah Cole at noahc@ontarionature.org. Please send well in advance and allow up to two weeks for posting. Events must be submitted by a member group or run jointly with Ontario Nature.
