EMBRACE your inner ornithologist this October and join the annual Aussie Bird Count! From October 16-22, 2023, Australians of all ages are invited to observe and tally our feathered friends in their local habitat. This could be your backyard, the park, a beach, or even the town centre.

Just 20 minutes of your time can contribute to BirdLife Australia’s ongoing conservation efforts. As the nation’s leading bird conservation organisation, BirdLife Australia has been a strong advocate for our avian population since 1901.

Participation is a breeze – simply spend 20 minutes in your favourite outdoor spot, count the birds you see, and submit your results via their app or website. There’s even a built-in “bird finder” tool for those tricky identifications.

Every count matters, so why not get involved? For more information or to register, visit https://aussiebirdcount.org.au or scan the QR code.
