Saturday, May 9th is Global Big Day - a special birding holiday that encourages nature lovers around the world to get outside and look for birds! Last year more than 50,000 people from 200 countries participated in Global Big Day on eBird to create a global snapshot of bird abundance and distribution. Join SCRGP, The High Line Canal, and Denver Audubon to participate in the fun!

What is eBird?

We will be using eBird to track the birds we see along our walk. eBird is a worldwide bird checklist program that compiles millions of users’ bird sightings into one database. Scientists use this data for bird research and conservation projects! eBird creates and hosts Global Big Day and other birding holidays throughout the year.

Want to join the fun?

The Sand Creek Regional Greenway Partnership is partnering with the High Line Canal Conservancy and Denver Audubon to host a bird walk along at the intersection of the Greenway and High Line Canal. No experience or birding knowledge is needed to join! Bird fans of all ages and abilities are welcome. Each walk will be led by an experienced birder who will record all of the birds we see into eBird.
