The Great Backyard Bird Count (GBBC) doesn't come our way everyday. But birds do. If you love observing birds, or are curious about them, or even just love to paint or draw pictures of birds - here's an event that you can be a part of. An event where the input of each one of us from around the world can help conserve bird species and populations. One of the three organisations that puts together the GBBC is the Cornell Lab of Ornithology. This episode was recorded in 2023, when the Project Leader of GBBC - Becca Rodomsky Bish joined us.  Also on this episode are 3 curious kids - 9-yr old Shravan from Singapore, 10-yr old Taanvi from the US and 11-yr old Adya from India.   What is GBBC? What can I do as part of this? Listen to the episode in full to find answers to these questions and more. This is part 1 of a 2-part series of podcasts on the GBBC.
