January 5, 2023
With its roots in the USA, National Bird Day has been observed every year on January 5 ever since its first celebration in 2002.
This date was chosen specifically because the annual “Christmas Bird Count” takes place on January 5 too. This annual citizen survey has taken place in the USA for quite a time now. The results provide information about both the numbers and the health of birds across the United States of America.*
Birds are quite popular in sheet patterns as well. You can view the ones we’ve catalogued here.
Featured photo is Fieldcrest’s “Spring Song”, 1958. Better photos needed in both colorways.
