eBird

eBird is an online platform developed by the Cornell Lab of Ornithology that allows bird enthusiasts and researchers to record and share sightings of bird species. Users submit detailed observations, including species identified, location, date, time, and photos if available. This crowdsourced data helps scientists understand bird distribution, migration patterns, and population trends in real-time. eBird fosters a global community of nature observers, providing valuable insights for conservation efforts and enhancing knowledge about bird behavior and habitats. Its user-friendly interface makes contributing simple, whether for casual birdwatching or scientific research.
