Birdwatchers across the globe will take part in the 23rd annual Great Backyard Bird Count this weekend. The citizen science project helps biologists at the Cornell Lab of Ornithology create an annual snapshot of the distribution and abundance of birds. Each February, millions of birds are counted, and the GBBC is the largest recorded count of global bird populations.
