Project WoodlandWatch allows woodlot owners to enter their bird observations and has many advantages for both the woodlot owners and for bird conservation. A new poster series will aid landowners in identifying common forest species.
The Fraser River Delta provides critically important habitat for shorebirds, including Dunlin. Birds Canada is tracking the movements of Dunlin to better understand how they use different parts of the Delta and understand the connections among those sites.
Unfortunately, the future is uncertain for the Fraser Estuary and the biodiversity that depends on it. The Roberts Bank Terminal 2 is a proposed project that will double the size of the current port.
You’re invited to explore the world of birds during these upcoming celebrations! This year’s celebrations offer an exciting mix of online and in-person events in Toronto and Vancouver, most free to attend.
Participants who go birding for conservation during the 2022 Great Canadian Birdathon will receive a t-shirt with a Bank Swallow design by Alex Nicole. We chose to highlight the Bank Swallow on this year’s shirt because, unfortunately, it needs our awareness and help.
Each winter, volunteer participants with Project FeederWatch count the birds outside their window and submit their data to help monitor and increase our understanding of bird populations. This past season, there were over 5000 participants in Canada!
Birds Canada is seeking volunteers across Canada to help monitor Common Loons and nightjars (Common Nighthawks, Common Poorwills, and Eastern Whip-poor-wills).
We are looking for fit and skilled volunteers. Survey volunteers will hike to specific waterfalls to collect data on Black Swifts and their nests (if present), and on the site habitat and threats.
This spring, Birds Canada BC staff and volunteers are gearing up to survey Long-billed Curlews. The Long-billed Curlew is one of the first birds to arrive in Canada each spring.
Registration is open for the 2022 Great Canadian Birdathon. Sign up now and you can join thousands of birders and supporters in giving birds a boost! Last year’s Birdathon raised $206,923 for conservation efforts, thanks to individuals like you.
