There are three categories: greatest number of species observed, greatest number of species documented, and best records. The "greatest" categories can be followed day by day through the site reports, while the results of the "best" category will be posted at the end of the year.
How does it work?
The record-keeping platform of the annual competition is EcoRegistros, where from the records published by each participant the competitor's rankings are automatically organized for each of the regions in the "Observed" and "Documented" categories, in addition they are made of In order to automatically list the species lists registered in 2024 by each participant in each region, you must only publish the records of the bird species observed throughout the year.
The material can be used in the Freebirds project to enrich the species guide.
There are no prerequisites and the event is totally free and free.
Anyone can participate. Begin the first day of 2024 and finish the last.
