Epi 90: How to be a part of the Great Backyard Bird Count (part 2)

Full Episode description

In part 1 of this series (Epi 89), we discussed what the Great Backyard Bird Count was all about. In this episode, we answer questions on how to participate in it. There are lots of curious questions about birds too, that we have tried to answer in this episode.

One of the three organisations that puts together the GBBC is the Cornell Lab of Ornithology. The Project Leader of GBBC – Becca Rodomsky Bish joins us in this episode to chat about birds and this event. Also on this episode are 3 curious kids – 9-yr old Shravan from Singapore, 10-yr old Taanvi from the US and 11-yr old Adya from India. We are sure the questions and ideas of these 3 children will both add to your education and entertainment.
Listen to the episode in full to find out more about this event and about how to participate in it.
