"Birds Count 1-20" is a jazz song and corresponding animation produced during the second season of Sesame Street.

Animated by John and Faith Hubley, the song musically counts 20 birds as they fly around or appear on the corresponding numerals as they change or go in and out of frame. At the song's climax, a large bird printed with the number 20 lands to join its 19 counterparts.

The vocals for the song were performed by future Sesame Street and Muppet Show guest star Dizzy Gillespie.
