Science Nation: Birds, Climate Change, and Citizen Science

White bird with gray speckles nesting on the ground. Caption: they check nests, count eggs, and keep records

With help from the National Science Foundation, Cornell University’s Ornithology Lab is tracking bird breeding biology and the impact of climate change on bird populations. Some of the best information they are getting is from dedicated “citizen scientists” who provide critical data on what kinds of birds are nesting where, the number of eggs laid, and the number of chicks hatched.
