To add your observations, please go to the Garden Bird Survey website where you'll find a web form set up exactly how you need it for the survey.
We will be archiving the data from the survey nightly here on NatureWatch NZ into this invitation-only project.
The official garden bird survey web form doesn't accept photos. But we like photos! If you take photos of the birds in your garden, please add them directly to NatureWatch NZ as general observations throughout the week.

If you're really keen and are familiar with using NatureWatch NZ, you can also add the correct SurveyID value to the field NZ Garden Bird Survey SurveyID to your photo observation. Browse the map on the New Zealand Garden Bird Survey 2016 project on NatureWatch NZ, click on an observation of yours to load the web page for that observation, and copy the Survey ID. That's as geeky as it sounds and is totally optional. :-)
We hope in future years to build in tighter integration with NatureWatch NZ and include a dedicated mobile app for the survey.
