30 Minutes Outside on World Environment Day

Dear friends of birds and trees,

The bird people* in the Malaysian Nature Society hope you have 30 minutes to
spare on the weekend of 4 OR 5 June (Saturday or Sunday) to chip in for the
2011 MY Garden Birdwatch survey.

At the end of the exercise, simply email the information to
chirp@mygardenbirdwatch.com or enter to Bird-I Witness
(www.worldbirds.org/malaysia) by 20 June 2011.

You will need to register again at the MYGB website, so that we know whether
you will be participating again.  Please try to count at the same location
as last year as continuous monitoring at the same location will yield more
meaningful data.

If you can spread this meaning event to your friends and relatives, attached
is our poster which you can use as an introduction.

Let's do our part for bird conservation.

Happy counting,
the MY Garden Birdwatch committee

Mark your calendars!

2010 SURVEY OPEN FOR REGISTRATION 

Be part of the MASSIVE, first ever nationwide bird survey of its kind in Malaysia! MY GARDEN BIRDWATCH is a survey for everyone, couch potatos and city slickers, you and me.

Just go to a local patch of your choice -- gardens, parks, housing estates, cities or the Kampung -- and tell us which birds you see. Survey results will provide information on bird numbers and distribution, which forms the basis for conservation priorities.

Natural events like predation, diseases, earthquakes and climate change, combined with human activities such as urbanisation and forest clearing all have major impact on the wellbeing of many species of birds. We need to better understand how to strike a balance between conservation and development, and we need your help.

Simply check on the garden birds in your area, once a year. Your participation will go a long way. Sign up as a counter now!
