Byron Young, President of Eastern Long Island Audubon will discuss all aspects of the Great Backyard Bird Count and eBird, provide information about bird counts you can participate in, and how you can contribute to citizen science from home all year long. After an indoor presentation, head outdoors with Bryon to document and count birds around the iconic Fire Island lighthouse. This is the perfect opportunity to contribute to science and bird conservation efforts. Bring binoculars if you have them and dress for the outdoors.
