eBird is a global community united by our love of birds. It is a place where we share our observations, our photographs, and our audio recordings of the birds we love.
For birders, one way to get through this period is to spend time outdoors enjoying birds—just remember to keep health and safety your top priorities. Follow the recommendations of your local health authorities at all times, even if it means staying at home and focusing on your yard or garden list instead.
