Hi all--

I want to remind everyone that today marks the start of this year's Global Shorebird Count as part of World Shorebird Day.  We encourage everyone to share eBird checklists that contain any shorebirds between today and September 7 with World Shorebirds Day.

Last year, 148 species of shorebirds around the world were recorded on 1,615 checklists from 1,237 locales!  It is a huge and powerful snapshot of the state of the world's shorebirds on a single day each year.  Be part of it!

World Shorebirds Day itself is always September 6.  Learn more here:
