Mark is asking that everyone who wishes to go on a field trip with him to have an eBird account. It is free, easy, and serves a highly important role in global citizen science. The eBird data are critical for countless research projects that impact conservation and funding policies around the world. The website also has amazing resources that can help you become a better and more responsible birder. 

 

Your registration requires your eBird username on the form.

Create an eBird account at ebird.org/home and then start exploring eBird!
