2026 GREAT BACKYARD BIRD COUNT FINAL RESULTS
The World Turned Out for the Birds — and Each Other
Few things are as inspiring as watching birds. They busily navigate their daily lives: singing, flocking, calling, feeding, socializing, and surviving. Closely rivaling the wonderment of birds are birders themselves. Birders from all corners of the world came together for the Great Backyard Bird Count, defying the barriers that seek to divide us in our quest to celebrate birds and the natural world. Like nothing else, birds are a unifying force of amazement. Together 8,257 species were found which is 179 more than in 2025.
