eBird offers an easy way to track your bird observations in real time! Get familiar with the process of using eBird Mobile with this guided video tour. You can also enter sightings through the eBird website, however we recommend eBird Mobile as the easiest way to track what you find.

Update: Now, there is no need to check a box to confirm your sighting! When you document a rare species or high count, eBird has a few ways to indicate it. First, symbols will appear to the right of the species: an R for Rare Species and an exclamation mark for high counts (these icons can be tapped for more information). Second, the species will be highlighted in orange to remind you to add a comment about the sighting(this will disappear after comments are added). eBird will notify you again at submission if you forget to add comments. Happy Listing!
