The Aussie Backyard Bird Count [1] is a great way to connect with the birds in your backyard, no matter where your backyard might be - a suburban backyard, a local park, a patch of forest, a farm, down by the beach, or the main street of town.

 

To take part all you need is 20 minutes and your favourite outdoor space. Not only will you be contributing to BirdLife Australia's knowledge of Aussie birds, but there are also some great prizes on offer. Head to the website and register as a counter today!
