Breeding bird atlases get us out in nature, hone our observation skills, teach us about the birds we love, and enable us to contribute to a landmark effort for California and its birds.

For eBirders, the website has simple instructions for linking CBA to your eBird mobile app. You’ll be part of a valuable and timely citizen science project. Check it out and join the fun!
