This count is done by the National Audubon Society and the Cornell Lab of Ornithology, with Canadian partner Bird Studies Canada. The 2011 count produced had 60,00 participants turning in 11.4 million observations, and identified 596 species. Two new species never reported to the count before included a Brown Shrike in McKinleyville, California, and a Common Chaffinch recorded in Placentia, Newfoundland and Labrador—both species well out of their normal ranges. In Alaska, a GBBC participant observed a Brambling visiting her feeder—the only one reported for all of North America. Instructions on how to participate can be found at http://www.birdsource.org/gbbc.
