Birds Canada and partners are launching the third season of the Ontario Breeding Bird Atlas-3 project (Atlas-3), the largest province-wide Citizen Science effort which surveys all species breeding in Ontario.

Chimney Swifts are an amazing species – they migrate from Canada to the Amazon River basin, spend most of each day flying, nest and spend nights in chimneys and hollow trees. Protecting Chimney Swifts requires actions on multiple fronts.

They weigh scarcely more than a slice of bread. Yet each year, this little bird travels long distances. Learn more about this species.

Half a million people from 202 countries were out birding February 17-20, 2023.  Birds truly brought the world together for the Great Backyard Bird Count (GBBC).

At first we collaborated with the ravens, but as we grew stronger, we pushed them aside. They saw that we were plundering more and more of the Earth’s resources. Their plan was not to fight. To attract our attention, they enlisted the help of a few children in each country.

Start planning now to take your love of birds to the next level! Create habitat in your yard or garden that provides life-saving resources for birds.
