Great Backyard Bird Count

The Friends of Florissant Fossil Beds along with many partners will host a citizen science event. The Great Backyard Bird Count is a great way for people of all ages and backgrounds to connect with nature and make a difference for birds. There will be two opportunities to join a scientist and help count birds.

The times are 9:15 to 10:30 a.m. or 10:45 a.m. to 12 p.m. You may participate in one or both if you would like. Meet at the visitor center. From 1 to 3 p.m. families can participate in a scavenger hunt and/or make a bird feeder.
