Echo Park Backyard Bird Count

The Echo Park Backyard Bird Count is coming up this Sunday, February 14, 2010.

Meet fellow bird lovers at the Echo Park Lake Boathouse at 9:00 am (lasts about 2 hours), and discover the birds in your backyard, schoolyard or park. It’s fun, it’s free and it helps the birds. All ages and skills welcome.

Whether you are brand new to birding or an expert, your count counts! Your checklist will contribute valuable information for science and conservation.

For more information, contact Judy Raskin at judycalifornia@yahoo.com or call (323) 663-6767.

The Great Backyard Bird Count runs four days, February 12-15. To participate on other days or at home, get more information at www.birdcount.org.
