Come to northeastern Massachusetts and southeastern New Hampshire for great winter birding and a chance to compete with other birders for prizes in ten categories. The Superbowl of Birding, now in its tenth year, is a unique, twelve-hour team competition. During Superbowl, teams of birders seek out the greatest number of species and earn the greatest number of points based on the rarity of the birds recorded. Strategy and planning are essential to win prizes.
The competition is designed to encourage birders of all ages and abilities to participate. The Fledgling Award competition is for birders ages 12 and under. The NewBies Award is for birders ages 18 and under. Adults can compete for prizes in eight other categories, including our top prize, the Nikon Joppa Cup. The Superbowl of Birding X is your chance to enjoy spectacular winter birding in one of the best locations in the eastern United States, meet other birders, and show just how good you and your team really are.
