The Little Rock Zoo invites you to join in the global project called "The Great Backyard Bird Count".   

Started in 1998 by the Cornell Lab of Ornithology and National Audubon Society, the Great Backyard Bird Count (GBBC) was the first online citizen-science project (also referred to as community science) to collect data on wild birds and to display results in near real time. Learn more here; https://www.birdcount.org/
