The Top 10 Feeder Birds in NC
Project FeederWatch is a winter-long survey of birds that visit feeders at backyards, nature centers, community areas, and other locales in North America. FeederWatchers periodically count the birds they see at their feeders from November through early April and send their counts to Project FeederWatch. FeederWatch data help scientists track broadscale movements of winter bird populations and long-term trends in bird distribution and abundance.
Anyone with an interest in birds! FeederWatch is conducted by people of all skill levels and backgrounds, including children, families, individuals, classrooms, retired persons, youth groups, nature centers, and bird clubs. So, the top ten most reported birds in North Carolina are the following:

1. Northern Cardinal

3. Mourning Dove 4. American Goldfinch


5. Carolina Wren
6. Dark-eyed Junco


7. Carolina Chickadee
