TitleeBird Canada - Bird Data
AbstracteBird Canada, a project developed by Bird Studies Canada, the Cornell Lab of Ornithology and the National Audubon Society, provides a simple way for birders to keep track of the birds they see anywhere in North America with a focus on the birds of Canada. You can retrieve information on your bird observations, from your backyard to your neighborhood to your favorite bird-watching locations, at any time for your personal use. You can also access the entire historical database to find out what other eBirders are reporting from across North America. In addition, the cumulative eBird database is used by birdwatchers, scientists, and conservationists who want to know more about the distributions and movement patterns of birds across the continent. Various regional eBird clones exist (aVerAves, Vermont eBird, Mass Audubon eBird, Texas eBird, Bird Conservation Network eBird, Gulf Coast Bird Observatory eBird), but they all contribute to the cumulative eBird database. +++++ This layer provides access to the raw bird data records in GML format and can take a very long time to process if the full dataset is requested. Users are advised to query this layer by species -- the full dataset can be obtained as a zip archive from www.naturecounts.ca +++++
