Birds Canada is a charitable organization dedicated to bird conservation. Our mission is to drive action to increase the understanding, appreciation, and conservation of birds in Canada. We are active from coast to coast to coast, working for birds in six key program areas:

- Assessing the State of Canada’s Birds: We conduct sector-leading science and large-scale population monitoring to inform the conservation of all bird groups.
- Species of Highest Concern: We act to reverse the precipitous declines of imperiled species and bird groups most at risk.
- International Collaboration and Conservation: We forge innovative partnerships to fill critical knowledge gaps and support our shared responsibility for conserving migratory birds.
- Long Point Bird Observatory: We’re building on our proud history of Long Point stewardship, migration research, national collaboration, education, and community.
- Important Places for Birds: We support nature-based solutions to protect the havens of bird biodiversity.
- Mobilizing People in Canada: We welcome all bird enthusiasts, raise awareness and provide meaningful opportunities for people to take action.
In all of these activities we are both collectors and users of large amounts of bird and biodiversity data, which brings us to NatureCounts.
