Tomorrow (Friday) is the day...!

You're invited to participate in Birds of the Equinox.

Birds of the Equinox is a project to document birdlife during the
March 20 equinox. (That's this Friday!)

At the March equinox, the sun appears to cross the equator as earth's
northern hemisphere tips toward the sun. The North is warming and
getting lighter; the South has begun to darken and cool. All over the
planet, birds are in motion.

Wherever you are on our glorious, dizzy little planet, stop for a
moment and notice the birds of the equinox. Golden-cheeked Warblers
returning to juniper-clad hills? Sacred Kingfishers evacuating to New
Guinea? Let's paint a picture of this moment in time: Birds of the
Equinox.

Here's how to participate:

 1. Find a time within 12 hours either side of the equinox.
 2. Go birding.
 3. Record your experiences and observations.
 4. Tell us about it.

Full details and instructions are available at
http://birdstack.com/solar-birding/march-equinox-2009

It's going to be a lot of fun -- we hope you'll join in. Make sure
that your part of the world is represented this week!

For ideas and inspiration, check out some of the submissions from our
last event, Birds of the Solstice:
