The Louisiana Bird Observatory (LABO) is a state-wide partnership of bird monitoring stations focused on promoting bird conservation through quality science and education. After its beginnings as the Bluebonnet Bird Monitoring Project run in large part through volunteer leadership and support, LABO has grown to include several on-going collaborative projects with other organizations.
Our collection of avian demographic and community assemblage data through year-round censuses and bird banding to support conservation and management decisions form the core of our activities, and in addition to developing quality science, LABO routinely provides training for students and outreach for visitors of all ages to help build a more bird friendly Louisiana.
Our banders operate with the necessary state and federal permits to work with birds protected by the Migratory Bird Treaty Act.
