Registrations are required, space is limited. A Breeding Bird Atlas occurs every 20 years in New York for a five-year period. This third New York State atlas effort began in 2020, and birders of all backgrounds are participating through 2024. Breeding Bird Atlas surveys continue to improve understanding of changes in the distribution of breeding birds in New York State and provide the basis for more informed conservation and management of birds and their habitats on public and private lands. Bird observations are entered into the NYS Breeding Bird Atlas portal on eBird free mobile app from Cornell Lab of Ornithology that allows online and offline collection of bird observations anywhere in the world. eBird is a free app, and lets birders enter when, where, and how they went birding, and then fill out a checklist of all the birds seen and heard during their outings.
