Created by and for young birders, the GYBN connects young birders from around the world to share their love of birds and birding.

A program of Black Swamp Bird Observatory, the Global Young Birders Network connects young birders from around the world to share their love of birds and birding. We are committed to providing resources for young birders to connect and learn while giving their adult advocates resources to encourage and support. We make this possible through an engaging social media presence, a comprehensive website, and strong youth leadership. The GYBN is primarily geared for middle and high schoolers, but birders of all ages may find our resources helpful. On the site, you'll find a toolkit for starting young birders clubs, listings of upcoming camps and events, information on colleges and majors, and more! The GYBN is a program of Black Swamp Bird Observatory.

Thank you to Mason Currier for sharing this beautiful image of an Eastern Bluebird titled "Sky Bird."

"Eastern Bluebirds sparked my love for birds and I love watching them at a local park. By the playground, they often come to eye level, explosions of color in a bare tree. This male happened to peer up as I clicked the shutter, lighting up his face on this cloudy day."

Students are encouraged to continue sharing artwork with us through our website, email, and social media messages!

"I was visiting Bolsa Chica, one of the best coastal wetlands in Southern California, when this Reddish Egret flew up in front of us! It is posing on a piece of oil machinery, which I thought was a nice contrast between development and conservation in SoCal."

"For this piece, I was inspired by the 2021 bird of the year, the Pileated Woodpecker. This painting was the first time I had used my gouache paint that I received for Christmas. This was an adventure in itself because it took more time and patience to complete."

Today's Global Young Birders Weekend photo:

"Last year, on our family's camping trip to Point Lookout State Park in Maryland, I dedicated a morning to photograph birds at sunrise. In the midst of around a hundred laughing gulls, I was excited to get this shot of a Royal Tern. I love the freedom in a Tern's flight. I think the crisp silhouette of the Tern, and the fiery reds and oranges makes this a classic sunrise shot!"

Our Global Young Birders Weekend offered a virtual photography and art gallery for students around the world. With many wonderful images submitted, we wanted to share them over the coming weeks!

"I was out one night looking for shorebirds and I noticed this little phalarope putting along the edge of the water. I lied down and the little fella came extremely close. It was only about a meter away from my feet! I was able to capture some really nice feather detail and sunset colors. No color editing was applied."
