Each year people from around the world come together to watch, learn about, count, and celebrate birds: the Great Backyard Bird Count. Help this citizen science project while you do what you enjoy doing, observing the birds in your environment. One of the highlights of this project is to watch your fellow participants as they add content to eBird. You can watch online as bird counts are added. Each submitted checklist becomes a glowing light on the eBird bird sightings map.

Feb 14–17, 2025, participate in this global event: GBBC.
The April-November, participate in Project Feederwatch.
These projects are coordinated by National Audubon, The Cornell Lab of Ornithology and Bird Studies Canada.

We encourage you to record your observations year round using eBird. It takes lists, which in the past remained with the observer, and shares them in a database with professionals for science and conservation. More than 100,000,000 bird sightings are recorded in the eBird database annually.

What’s happening: The Bureau of Land Management is considering significant changes in how they manage sage grouse on over 50 million acres of habitat across the West, including here in Utah. Please speak up to protecting this species, which will benefit communities and so many other wildlife found in sagebrush country.

With a majority of Greater Sage-grouse found on public lands, we want BLM to succeed with good plans and address concerns that we have – which include proposed changes to habitat designations (and thus management actions) in Utah!
