Everyone gathers at the garden, eats dinner or breakfast, shares in community, family and friendship. Walk around the garden quietly looking for birds and collecting data. Hold a contest for the most bird-friendly garden! Invite a birder to take the public on a bird walk in your garden! Teach people to recognize the 16 focal Celebrate Urban Birds species using the PowerPoint presentation before going outside to collect data. Contact urbanbirds@cornell.edu for a ready-made slideshow on a CD to be sent to you by mail.
