Signs of Spring Challenge

Celebrate spring by entering the latest Celebrate Urban Birds Challenge. Take a walk outside and notice signs of spring: a robin with a beak full of worms or nesting material, a goldfinch becoming bright yellow again, birds returning from their winter migration, courting behavior, a spring song, a new nest, young birds learning to fly, and more. Share your observations with Celebrate Urban Birds. Be creative! Take a photo, create a dance, do some artwork, shoot video, write a story or a poem, or create a sculpture. Just show or describe signs of spring. Win great prizes! Submit your entries by May 1. Learn more.
