It's Spring Survey time! Prizes up for grabs

The spring is sprung, the grass is rizz, I wonder where the birdies is. I bet they’re in the garden. Conduct a survey this September & October and find out.

Head over to Birdata and get your Birds in Backyards Spring Survey in today.

Getting started is easy. If you don't have a Birdata account, sign up for one today. Then read the instructions or watch the video.

If you've submitted your survey via the Birdata app, please make sure to log in on the web version and complete your site details. You'll only have to do this once (unless you change anything in your site). A full version of the Birds in Backyards survey on the Birdata app is on it's way!

Prizes up for grabs

By completing a Spring survey you also go into the draw to win a fabulous prize. Three lucky people chosen at random will each win:

• a set of 5 delightfully backyard-themed BirdLife Australia bird pins (comprising a Superb Fairy-wren, Powerful Owl, Galah, Australian Magpie, and an Eastern or Western Spinebill - depending on your location) PLUS
• a great Birds in Backyard fridge magnet PLUS
• a copy of our new Nocturnal Birds identification booklet featuring the Owls, Frogmouths and Nightjars of Australia. Get your surveys in!

It's counting season!

With the weather warming up comes lots of birdie action and a very busy season of surveying. This year, the Birds in Backyards Spring Survey will overlap with the annual Aussie Backyard Bird Count held this October 22-28. We encourage you to get involved in both surveys, but just remember they are submitted in two different places and serve different purposes (but work together to build a complete picture).
