Friday, February 18 – 21: Great Backyard Bird Count. Count for fun – count for
the future! Tally birds at any location, fill out your checklist online, and watch
the counts pour in from around the continent. Great for bird watchers of all
ages. The City of Gulfport Public Library is also participating providing a bird
book display along with a list of birds in the area. You can stay and view the
books or check them out. The Library is also opened Friday February 18,
Saturday, February 19 and Monday, February 21 for those who do not have
internet access to log in the birds they find to get potential prizes from the
GBBC website. The GBBC web site explains the event and can help answer
any questions you may have. Check out the link at
