Birding For Everybody
In Collaboration with Birdability
We want birding to be an activity that is welcoming, inclusive, and accessible to every person. Using Birdability’s resources, we want to help grow an international effort to make public birding more available to everybody no matter their access challenges.
As a part of your participation in the Great Backyard Bird Count, consider contributing to Birdability’s Map!
Map A Birding Site
In an effort to better communicate the conditions of public birding locations around the world, Birdability invites you to add to their map of public places to bird. Help others learn ahead of time the trail conditions, potential obstacles, amenities, or other important information about the accessibility of locations.
Service Learning Project
If you are a youth educator or mentor, consider adding to the Birdability Map for a service learning project. Go birding over the 4-day count, then add as many details as you can about the location to the map. Every body will benefit from knowing ahead of time if a location provides the amenities they need to feel safe, welcome, and included while birding.
