Bird Count Walks
Expert birders and naturalists Ed Dominguez of Seward Park Audobon and Kevin O’Malley of South Sound Nature School will guide participants as they help Cornell Lab, Audubon, and Birds Canada track the number and species of backyard birds in Burien and around the world!
Walks will consist of a guided bird count and instructions on how to enter data onto ebird, followed by small group Q & A.
If both sessions are full, we invite you to join us digitally to count birds in your own backyard through the eBird or Merlin bird ID apps!
