The Birdhouse Network
Is there a nest box (birdhouse) on your property? Do you know what's nesting in it? The Birdhouse Network will help you learn to peek inside and collect
important information that will help ensure the future of bluebirds and other species that nest in cavities and use nest boxes. - BirdSource
Project PigeonWatch
Who cares about pigeons? Lab scientists do, that's who, and we hope you do, too! PigeonWatchers learn to distinguish between color phases of pigeons,

E-Bird
eBird, a project developed by the Cornell Lab of Ornithology and the National Audubon Society, provides a simple way for you to keep
track of the birds you see anywhere in North America. You can retrieve information on your bird observations, from your backyard to
your neighborhood to your favorite bird-watching locations, at any time for your personal use. You can also access the entire historical
database to find out what other eBirders are reporting from across North America. In addition, the cumulative eBird database is used by
birdwatchers, scientists, and conservationists who want to know more about the distributions and movement patterns of birds across the continent.
eBird Site Survey - Cornell Lab of Ornithology
Observations regularly submitted from a single location help scientists more accurately address broad-scale questions
about the ebb and flow of bird populations across the years.
