Backyard Frog Survey
Do you listen to the calls of frogs and toads in your backyard? Since 1992, volunteers have developed a long-term monitoring program in Ontario. The information collected informs scientists how geographic distribution, species diversity and population sizes change over time and space.

Bird Studies Canada's National Programs
Join this growing national network of observatories monitoring migratory birds. Volunteer-based surveys such as the Canadian Lakes Loon Survey and Project FeederWatch help provide vital information to scientists.

Birds Ontario
Looking for a site where volunteer citizen scientists can communicate, collaborate, and share their knowledge of birds and bird distributions? Birds Ontario has links to various bird programs.

Breeding Bird Survey
The North American Breeding Bird Survey is an avian survey designed to collect long-term data on the population status and trends of breeding birds throughout North America.

Calling All Birders! Volunteer Opportunities
Get involved! Help monitor and conserve Canada's birds. Volunteer opportunities in Alberta, Saskatchewan and Manitoba are available to suit every skill level and time commitment.

Canadian Lakes Loon Survey
Volunteers check lakes once per month in June, July and August, anywhere in Canada, to monitor the numbers and breeding success of loons. This project aims to preserve loons by increasing Canadians' understanding of them and the impact of human activity on their populations.

Canadian Landbird Monitoring Strategy
The Canadian Landbird Monitoring Strategy provides a strategic framework and an action plan for the long-term monitoring of Canada's landbirds and selected waterbirds.

Canadian Migration Monitoring Network
Volunteers count birds every summer on their breeding grounds to know what is happening to their populations and to find ways to protect bird species.

CANWARN Fact Sheet
Join this organization of ham radio operators who play a vital role in reporting signs of severe weather to Environment Canada’s weather centers. Volunteers confirm on the ground what satellites and radars see in the atmosphere.

Dandelion Watch
By looking at the same plant or patch of dandelions every year, then recording the date that they flower, volunteers help scientists measure how the climate is changing.
