Bird Count

Bird Count India is working towards this vision by collaborating with citizen scientists (bird watchers) across the country to generate both informal (accidental bird sightings) and formal (systematic surveys and monitoring) bird data and transform that data into knowledge. This is achieved partly through direct collaboration with birders, but also through partnerships with formal and informal institutions, organizations and groups. The Indian Bird Count thus acts as an umbrella for a consortium of large informal groups that generally share the same vision.
