Bird Identification Data Sheet Sheet

Record as many birds as possible within the study site. You may also record birds flying within 500 feet of the site. Record where you see the bird—flying overhead, sitting in a tree, shrub or bush or on the ground or if you hear the bird nearby. Be sure to look for feathers, nests, eggs, etc.

You will need a new data sheet for each bird you record.
