The Birding Club of Delaware County (BCDC) is not hosting an evening program in February. Instead, we encourage everyone to participate in the Great Backyard Bird Count (GBBC) on February 14-17, 2025! Birds are everywhere, all the time, doing fascinating things! Join fellow bird watchers around the globe, sharing interest in birds and nature. Whether you count one bird or hundreds, participating is easy and fun for all ages.
Use eBird or Merlin to count birds in your backyard, favorite park, national wildlife refuge, or anywhere. Birds are everywhere, and everyone can count them, spending as little as 15 minutes to watch and report sightings. Tune in to watch the world map light up with live-time submissions.
The GBBC is a phenomenal community science initiative. Over four days each February, a half-million birdwatchers submit about 300,000 eBird checklists from 200 countries. More than 7,700 avian species – two-thirds of all known birds in the world – are documented during the GBBC timeframe. Individuals, clubs, schools and community groups flock to the GBBC as a means to discover, learn, and connect over birds.
Check out past GBBC stats from Delaware County on our website, and make a plan to go birding anywhere, anytime during the 2025 Great Backyard Bird Count. Check out BCDC Field Trips listing and join us for a GBBC Bird Walk. We look forward to seeing you!
