Count the birds: Spend 20 minutes quietly observing and counting the birds around you. Note the species and the number you spot. Share your data: Record your findings using the Aussie Bird Count app or the web form. You can participate as many times as you like, in as many places as you like during the count period, but each count should be 20 minutes.Image credit: James Mascott Parent event: Aussie Bird Count Event type: Free, Green Cost: Free Age: Suitable for all ages Bookings: No bookings required.
