Bird Count India

ABOUT

Bird Count India envisions a world in which key data and thereby the knowledge needed to understand and conserve India’s birds are publicly available at the finest possible spatial and temporal scales.

Bird Count India works to achieve this by engaging with citizen scientists (birdwatchers) across the country to generate both informal (casual birding) and formal (systematic surveys and monitoring) data on birds and converting this data into knowledge. This is achieved partly through engaging directly with birdwatchers, but also through partnerships with formal and informal institutions, organizations and groups. Bird Count India thus acts as an umbrella of a large informal consortium of groups that broadly share the same Vision.
