Bird Watching for our nature studies

I am excited to see so many options available for our nature study.  Here are some areas I want to look into for the kids and the cousins to participate in:

1.  ebird

• a year long bird count and FREE

2.  project feeder watch

• a winter watch program
• $15 charge but comes with a research kit and has good homeschool resources on the site

3.  the great backyard bird count

• this is the one our friend does every year and it's free
• only 4 days in Feburary
