Five minute bird counts (5MBCs) are a well-used standard method to monitor birds in New Zealand. You stay quiet in one place for five minutes and record all the birds you see and hear.

This is a project to enter 5MBC data. It includes the additional details on the Department of Conservation's 5MBC data sheet.

For more information, see the Department of Conservation's 5MBC webpages. פחות ↑
