Most Wanted Birds

Open your students' eyes to the birds all around them!

With the help of your local birds, the Most Wanted Birds kit will help students learn about diversity and adaptation.  With included resources like full-color focus cards, interactive computer-based bird ID quizzes, posters, and hands-on activities, your students will learn how to identify the birds in your schoolyard. Then, you're all invited to participate in our eBird citizen science project!

The Most Wanted Birds curriculum scaffolds the eBird Citizen Science project. eBird provides an easy way to keep track of the birds you see.

You can view information on your bird observations, and observations tracked from around the country, any time you want—a great opportunity for inquiry! Scientists, conservationists, and birdwatchers who want to know more about the distributions and movement patterns of birds across the continent also use the eBird database. Students like the fact that they are truly helping scientists through citizen science!
