Introducing eBird Taiwan

The Cornell Lab of Ornithology has announced the launch of eBird Taiwan—a regional eBird portal dedicated to the island nation of Taiwan. eBird Taiwan is run by a team of collaborators at theTaiwan Endemic Species Research Institute and the Chinese Wild Bird Federation.

The portal is the first to offer eBird completely translated into Chinese (Traditional), and it represents the first opportunity for eBird's tools and functionality to reach a quickly growing birding audience in Asia. In this fast-changing landscape, eBird can now offer local birders a place to report what they see, while making these data available for science and conservation. If you're interested in seeing eBird in Chinese (Traditional), you can now access that from the language menu in the upper right of any eBird page!
