Birds & Birding
Bird-a-thon
Mass Audubon's Largest Annual Fundraiser & Nature Celebration
Thank you for participating in Bird-a-thon! For over 40 years, Bird-a-thon has brought birders, nature-lovers, and families together to celebrate nature and raise funds that provide essential year-round support for Mass Audubon's conservation, nature education, and advocacy work.
This year we are taking a break. We are so grateful for all of you who have joined us for this wonderful event over the years, whether for the fun of it or for the thrill of competition (or both!). You make Bird-a-thon special through enjoying birds while raising or donating essential funds for Mass Audubon.
What's next?
We are working to make our future events, birding opportunities, and community gatherings even better.
How do I fill this hole in my birding heart?
Fear not! We have plenty of spring programs happening around the state, and birds still need our help – you can make a gift to support Mass Audubon’s work across the state or call your local sanctuary to support your favorite places and programs.
Questions?
Email us or connect with your local Mass Audubon wildlife sanctuary to learn about their current programs, or speak to a Development Officer about how you can support the work you love.
