The Backyard Bird Count is happening

The 22nd Great Backyard Bird Count (GBBC) will take place from Friday, Feb. 15 through Monday, Feb. 18.
Volunteers from around the world are invited to count the birds they see for at least 15 minutes on one or more days of the count, then enter their checklists at birdcount.org. Anyone with internet access can participate, no matter what their skill level — it’s a great family activity, too.
On Block Island the weekend will start with a GBBC tutorial. Meet Kim Gaffett at the Island Free Library on Friday, Feb. 15
