Wow, that time has rolled around and I am again excited to be a member of the Wrenegades birding team, with the opportunity to raise money for a worthy organization but heck, have a lot of fun with a crazy group at the same time. We have a new double-top secret strategy this year and are aiming to best all of our previous goals from last year, shooting for somewhere near ~185 species for the 24 hour period. Go big or don’t come back!
I do this to raise money for the Tucson Audubon Society, because I believe in the work it does for environmental conservation and education/outreach, and I am hoping that you will help me out in this goal. Now, more than ever, we’re going to have to do more ourselves and not depend on others to do it for us. Please contribute with either a fixed amount, or if you want to really spur our team on, pledge a specific amount per species that we see in the 24 hour period. Thanks so much for joining me in supporting this effort.
Birds have a unique, special, and different meaning to each of us. So too is each of our connection with Tucson Audubon Society personal and distinct. During Birdathon, we combine the love of bird watching during spring migration with support for bird conservation.
Birdathoners are birders and social fundraisers, joining together to make a difference for the birds and habitats of southeast Arizona. Birdathoners continue a tradition that has held strong for 30 years!
Each Birdathoner's personal network of supporters is what helps makes Birdathon possible.
This April and May, I'm going birding for the birds!
