Birds in Backyards

You may not know it, but there’s a lot you can do for Australia's birds from the comfort of your own home — from creating a bird-friendly garden to submitting a seasonal survey — you can make a difference by taking action in your own backyard. Find out more about the Birds in Backyards project.

Urban environments are built for people, but they’re not always good for birds. By conducting surveys and creating bird-friendly habitat, Birds in Backyards seeks to make our urban backyards better places for birds.
