The GBBC is this weekend and I'm doing my part, along with my two young helpers! Whether they realize it or not, they're becoming knowledgeable about birds :) My two sons, Hunter(7) and Riley(5) each got me a bird book for Christmas and get excited every time I open one of them! My husband even installed an app for me on his ipod called ChirpUSA!The count started yesterday(Friday Feb 12th) and goes through Monday(Feb 15th). I'll be counting in my backyard all 4 days and also at the park pond near my house. Yesterday the boys and I counted 65 Mallards and 5 Canada Geese at the park. In my yard there was not as much activity as usual...I only had 2 House Finches, 4 Juncos,1 Northern Flicker and 1 B.C.Chickadee! It's not too late to get your count in!!!!
