Keith Pardieck
Keith is the National Coordinator for the USGS North American Breeding Bird Survey (BBS) at the Eastern Ecological Science Center in Laurel, MD.
The USGS North American Breeding Bird Survey (BBS), an international avian monitoring program that provides annual population data for more the 600 bird species, providing a quantitative cornerstone of bird conservation and management in the U.S. and Canada. Each year the project entails mobilizing thousands of highly skilled professional and citizen scientists across 49 states, managing data entry processes, a 90-million-record MS-SQL database that spans 54 years, and approximately 5,000 sample locations, as well as collaborating with partners and stakeholders to address developing national concerns while improving the program’s core strengths.

North American Breeding Bird Survey Results and Analysis
This website provides visualizations of population change for North American birds using data from the North American Breeding Bird Survey (BBS). The BBS is analyzed for a "core" area (contiguous United States and southern Canada, results available from 1966-present), and for an "expanded" survey area (including portions of Alaska and northern Canada with results from 1993-present).
