Birders Meeting 2026

Since 1992, birders from around New England have come together every March to attend Mass Audubon's annual Birders Meeting.

This year's theme is "Wired for Flight: Technology and Triumphs in Bird Conservation." As the natural world undergoes rapid transformation, technology is becoming an essential tool for understanding and protecting bird populations. From satellite tracking and AI-powered identification apps to acoustic monitoring and community science platforms, innovation is reshaping how we study and conserve birds. This year's Birders Meeting will explore the intersection of birding, technology, and conservation—and how each of us can help birds thrive in a changing world.
