Join the "Garden Bird Hour" Count and Help Shore Up Bird Populations! 🐦🌱
Moment of Avian Yard Chatter - "Census for Garden Avians" - Number birds to record
Hey there, birdwatchers! There's an exciting opportunity coming up to lend a hand in conserving our feathered friends. The Nature Conservation Union Germany (NABU) and the Bavarian Nature Conservation Association LBV are inviting everyone to participate in their "Hour of Garden Birds" event, taking place from May 9-11. So, gather your binoculars and get ready to spot birds! 💭
The primary focus of the action is on common and widely distributed bird species that nestle in our gardens, perch on balconies, and frolic in the parks. If fortune favors, you might even catch a glimpse of the anticipated "Bird of the Year" 2025, the redstart, which will be descending from its winter quarters, a hunter of insects in our very own backyards, as LBV biologist Angelika Nelson elucidated.
Participation is straightforward: During the defined period, simply devote an hour to observing birds from the comfort of your home. Record the maximum number of each species you spot during that hour and submit your findings via the internet, an app, or by post. The aim is to collect valuable data on current trends in the bird world, supplementing the official population statistics. 📈📉
Note that the search results do not offer specific estimates for the bird count during the "Hour of Garden Birds" event. However, initiatives like the German Common Bird Monitoring scheme (MhB) and international platforms like eBird play a significant role in understanding bird populations and demographic shifts. Furthermore, findings from such events are crucial for bird conservation efforts, like those orchestrated by BirdLife International and cohorts. 🌟💙 🎯
So, gather your bird-loving buddies, and let's show these lovely creatures a bit of love while collecting invaluable data! Help the nature conservation associations gain insights into the bird kingdom and promote positive change for our fine avian friends! 🚀🐦🌱🌿
Engage in the "Garden Bird Hour" by observing birds from your home or garden and record the species you spot. Your contribution will help in understanding bird populations better, contributing to environmental protection and bird conservation efforts. Moreover, adopting a lifestyle that promotes bird-friendly gardens can aid in further environmental protection.
