Join Scott Olmstead of Tropical Birding and the Scott's Orioles team for a Big Day
Saturday, April 27th
Fundraising minimum: $200 per Participant
We'll bird the Santa Catalina Mountains from bottom to top over the course of one long day, and aim to see a selection of the representative bird species found in each life zone as we go. We'll start at dawn with riparian habitat in the Tanque Verde vicinity and then bird the Sonoran Desert at the foot of the mountains before continuing upward through the oak, pine, and fir forests toward the top of the mountains. Our target is to see and/or hear 100-120 species. If we are lucky we may even see our namesake bird! An optional pre-dawn owling excursion will be added this year.
Group size limited to 8 people
Please register for this trip here.
Scott's Orioles 2019 is Cheryl Baumeister, Malcolm Chesworth, Linda Elling, Carl Englander, Susanna Laundy, Barbara Retzlaff, Nancy Trimmer, Will Russell, and Scott Olmstead. We are getting ready for the big day!
Donations of all amounts from armchair birdathoners, oriole-lovers, and TAS supporters are greatly appreciated. Thank you everyone for your contributions so far!
Update: We finished our big day on April 27 with 121 species. It was a beautiful, sunny day. Thanks for the support, everyone!

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 over 30 years!
Each Birdathoner's personal network of supporters is what helps makes Birdathon possible.
