Bird-a-thon 2010 - May 14 & 15!

 26 TEAMS!     24 HOURS! 

Thank You for Making Bird-a-thon 2010 A Huge Success!

We had a fantastic Bird-a-thon this year — wonderful weather, lots of interesting bird sightings, live tweeting (on Twitter, that is), and an amazing turnout of support.

A total of 650 enthusiastic birders spread out across the state to record a total of 268 species. Among the most notable:

• White-faced Ibis
• Black Vulture
• Rough-legged Hawk
• Marbled Godwit
• Little Gull
• Caspian Tern
• Chuck-will's-widow
• Cave Swallow
• Golden-winged Warbler
• Western Tanager
• Clay-colored Sparrow
• Fox Sparrow
• Lapland Longspur

We want to send out a big THANKS to everyone who raised and donated money – with your help we’ve collected over $170,000 to help support the programs and sanctuaries you love so much. And while the event may be over, there’s still time to donate!

Check out our slideshow recapping the event; you can also find more details on how each team did.
